Oh, I love this sweater! I'm sending it off tomorrow for Petchitecture's auction, where I hope it will fetch a pretty penny for PAWS.
It was modeled for me by the lovely Chloe. I asked her owner what breed she was, then promptly forgot. Next time I'll take notes.
About the sweater! I used a wool/mohair blend, because I love the halo, but I also wanted some stitch definition to show off my lace.
I made the hems rolled, with a garter stitch chest for stretch.
The lace panel is over a background of stockinette, so it would really stand out. I'm so pleased with how it turned out, and also with how well-behaved Chloe was as a model. She was the easiest dog to photograph thus far in my career as a canine fashion designer/photographer. When I see her at the park, I'll be sure to say hello.
