If you love sock monkeys as much as I do, you will love knitting this dog sweater that I designed based upon my daughter’s favorite sock monkey toy. The crochet mouth and brim of the hat give this sweater a really fun, two-dimensional effect.

Instructions are written in an easy to follow row-by-row format. I have included color photos and YouTube links to help you complete the simple embroidery on the sock monkey’s mouth & ribbed border around the body.

The finished dimensions of this sweater are:

Chest: 15 - 18”
Length: 14” excluding collar
Neck: 7 - 11”

Skill level - Intermediate knitting and basic crochet

Materials needed:
Worsted weight yarn
US #6 needles
US #7 needles
US #6 double pointed needles (4)
US #6 circular needle (double pointed needles may be used if preferred)
US #6 or “G” crochet hook
Yarn sewing needle
Row counter
