Originally published June 2021 in Allie Pleiter’s “On Skein of Death” mystery. Thanks to Allie for asking me to design this sweater. It is complete with diagrams and photos I hope you enjoy knitting this for your furbaby friends. It is designed with a nordic theme and what I pictured Libby the yarn shop owner was designing in the book.

Pattern uses worsted weight yarn. Set of size 7 & 8 single point or circular or  any size needed for gauge of 5 stitches to 1”.  set of size 6 dpns for leg and body ribbings.  Models were made with size 7 needle and Rowan pure worsted wool yarn.  Approximately 75-240 yards of main color, and 50-175 yards of contrasting color.  Sizes range from 11” chest to 26” chest.
