This pattern is for my knotted cabled dog sweater. It is knitted on two needles size 8 and is knitted in two pieces. You will need to know how to knit, purl, cable 4 forward and cable 4 back. This was knitted for our dog Scooter who is a dachshund / chihuahua mix but can be adapted for larger or smaller dogs by adding or omitting stitches. I knitted this with Red Heart Navy, and Black yarn. If you need help understanding the cabling there is a great video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHclOXjFewM
