Purple Tulip Knit Dog Cardigan Sweater with Buttons

This dog cardigan is knitted in a jacquard pattern of small tulips on cream stripes, edged in lavender at the cuffs, hem and V-neck. A row of dark buttons runs down the front, so it opens like a regular cardigan.

It is made of wool-type knit and weighs between 120 and 170 g (4.2 to 6.0 oz) depending on size, which makes it a light layer for cool days, indoor chill or photos. Sizes run XS to XXL. The chart lists length, bust and neck for S through XXL; measure your dog's neck and the widest part of the chest, then choose the size with a little room, as knitwear stretches but should not squeeze.

Dress your dog by sliding the front legs through the sleeves and fastening the buttons along the chest. Keep an eye on small dogs for chewing at the buttons, and take the cardigan off if it gets wet or if your dog seems too warm. Hand wash in cool water with mild soap, press out the water and dry flat so the knit keeps its shape.
