Knit for a Cause! 100% of the proceeds from this KAL go to Harmony House, an emergency supportive housing program for young people ages 18–24. Harmony House offers emergency and transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and inclement weather shelters. It’s the only program of its kind in Summit County, Ohio.

As the winter months descend upon us, I am always struck by both the chill in the air and the great sense of whimsy for all things festive. This year a wee guernsey for your favourite furry friend might be just the thing for these cold and joyful months. Udo’s Guernsey is knit top-down and in the round. Scrap yarn is used to hold underarm stitches, and then later removed for knitting the sleeves. Short-rows at the back of the sweater provides a more comfortable and practical fit for both walkies and cuddles, with an optional lead/leash button-hole opening.
