Description

Two hot topics—male knitters and knits for dogs—come together in this one fabulous, fun volume! It’s a stand-out-from-the-crowd collection that features strong, colorful, and masculine designs that will appeal to men of all ages...plus companion items for their four-legged friends. The writing is informative, supportive, and humorous; crowd-pleasing images of well-dressed pooches with their sartorially splendid owners add to the entertainment. Geared toward knitters of all levels—but with an emphasis on intermediate and advanced techniques—the projects will wow readers. Imagine a quirky Rasta-inspired hat and a cool matching doggie jacket. Or a classic gray, cabled vest in merino wool and cashmere—one for him and one for Fido. Hit the town in a colorful patchwork pullover; matching saddlebags turn walk time into a fashionable outing. The projects are offered in a wide range of sizes to fit a variety of male and doggie body types—and, as an added feature, there are tips and anecdotes from more than a dozen male knitters.… (more)

A cool idea for a book. It's right up my alley - dogs and knitting - and I thought I was the only wierdo who delights in making things and snuggling dogs. There's one set of patterns in here that I like very much and which I wilkl make for me and Winston one day soon.

This is a wonderful book of patterns! I must admit that I have only made the doggie patterns, but the mens sweaters actually look like sweaters that men would be willing to wear. Love it!
