- In this video I show you how to knit a dog jumper. I use a pair of straight needles and a random ball of wool I found. This video is aimed at people who have never knitted before so shows how to do this from scratch.
If you have any questions feel free to comment or contact me and I will do my best to help.

This needs more attention, ive been searching for so long to find a knitting thing for beginners and they were either too complicated or in a whole different language
Agreed! I love this video! So easy!!!
Your dog is an excellent model to work on. She just stands there perfectly the whole time.
I've been searching for a video like this for 'true' beginners. You are so easy and enjoying to listen to on how to teach us how to knit a basic dog sweater. Thank you!!
THIS IS SO HELPFUL!!! gives me confidence that I can actually knit my puppy a sweater and make it custom to her measurements, even though I just learned how to knit yesterday haha. Thank you so much for this simple tutorial!!!
No complicated terms, very practical ways of measuring. Thanks for this. Some of us just want to make something for our dog. We don’t want to curl our brains in the process.
This cast on was way less frustrating than the long tail cast on I was doing. This way I can just make as many stitches as I need without having to guess about how much I would need and restarting until it was right. Thank you!
This is legit exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you so much!
❤ Thanks.
I am embarking on the dog sweater journey and looking for basic patterns.
Especially those one can knit while watching TV.
Thank you for this project it is very beginner friendly, I find a lot of 'beginner' projects are too complicated especially to assemble but this is nice and straightforward :)
I started knitting a while ago but I’m an absolutely beginner so I don’t know much and I’ve always wanted to knit my little dog a jumper. Definitely going to attempt this!
I don't have nails, I use the other needle to pull the stitch off when binding off
Thank you. Thank you. I've been trying to knit a sweater for my dog using a complicated pattern. I must have started over about 5 times then finally gave up. Your pattern is perfect. Simple is always better. Now my little dog will be toasty warm this winter. 🐕😊
Thank you so much, this video is totally perfect! I’m going to try to add a neck collar piece on to keep my greyhound’s neck warm on our early walks
That's a really good idea! Should be easy enough, just a rectangle as long as the circumference of their neck, and as wide as the length of their neck and sew it to the top😁 I didn't think of it because Tia has a very tiny neck so it wasn't needed. I'll keep that in mind if I make Toby a jumper, he has a long neck (perfect for stealing food off the counter 😅).
I’ve just started one form my whippet, I’m gonna also make a little neck for walks, thank you 😊
For whatever reason, I find patterns for dog jumpers hard to follow even though I know many stitches. I am, therefore, grateful for this video! Bravo!!
Fantastic tutorial.I spent hours on finding a truly simple pattern which is also practical.Thank you so much.
Eagerly waiting for more such tutorials from you.
There's a great life hack too at the end of the tutorial.Threading a strand of wool through a small eye needle.Kudos!!👏👏👍
I am a beginner and none of the videos or patterns i looked at have helped and this helped soooo much! Thank you!
What an easy peasy pattern..thanks for this...you have a lovely model🤭🤗
Love the tutorial, LOVE the accent. Thanks for making this!
Thanks! Wanted a very simple pattern for my Mum's old cat.
Did you make one for your mums cat? I have 2 cats I’m going to make them for, so just wondered how yours turned out?
This is a perfect example of someone who's title was ACTUALLY what was in the video. This was actually the simplest easiest explanation video on how to make a dog or cat jacket I've ever seen
Great sweater!!!
Looks very easy . I'm going to try it out now.
Two jumpers for my new chi's
Thank you
Lovely video my dear. Your model is to be applauded, your good self for her training, your knitting is beautiful and your pattern is great. Love it. Hugs from Australia ❤❤❤
Very clever, easy to follow. Thank for your video
I've been looking for ages for an easy dog jumper pattern and haven't been able to find one. I'm pretty new to knitting and the patterns I've found are far too complicated for me. I've learnt how to knit plain and pearl and cable knit all by watching You Tube video's, but your dog jumper tutorial has been an inspiration. Thank you so much for this video. It's given me so many idea's and I'm definitely going to try and knit this jumper.
My dog looks just like yours! He's a rescue but we think he's JRT x Dachshund and he has the same speckly body and little dark mask around his eyes. He's going to love having a little jumper this winter, thank you so much!
your dog is sooo cute and well behaved i hope she loves her jumper in the cold months ,im so thankful for this video because i only know basics too ,this looks superfun to do so im going to knit one for my lil westie !
Excellent!! And with an Irish (?) accent to boot! 🙏🙏👏👏
Your dog is so good! My little Jackie keeps moving everytime I try to measure 😂 thanks for the video x
Wow! Just found this. I love it!!
This is great thanks! I was also sold on this video as soon as you mentioned The Walking Dead lol! Will be making this for my pup!
Hi, I’ve just found this video and it’s amazing, Clear and concise and your dog is so cute. Thank you for these instructions. 😊
Please could you make some more videos?
What an awesome video! Thank you for the tips! You made it look so easy!!
What a cute jumper for your lovely dog .💖
And your wee dog is a star so patient
Fantastic video easy to follow thankyou
Love this idea and it isn’t complicated to put me off having ago at knitting it for my senior dog. The jumper does look awkward to remove this from my dog as she struggles at the best of times when I remove any dog coat from her.
Thank you for this lovely tutorial and your dog is so so cute!!
Thank you for this easy tutorial. I've croched a couple of dog coats in one piece and the arm holes always ended up wonky and slightly off. (I find it harder to count rows on crocheting than
knitting) This way is ingenious!! Thank you
Btw, I have never seen the thick yarn - pulled - through- a - regular - size - eye - of - the - needle - trick, and I watch a lot of knitting videos!
You are amazing thank you so much a tutorial that is do-able for me!!!
omg I love this video so much thank you, very helpful and so cute!!!!
This is fantastic! Pudding and I thank you and Tia for your amazing work!
Great video!
Thiz is perfect very easy to follow and for boy dog make belly bit shorter keep up knitting and you'll be really good
OMG THANK YOU NOW I CAN MAKE MY PUPPY A SWEATER FOR HALLOWEEN
Very Nice Thank You For Sharing ❤️🕊❤️
Wow this looks good and so esay to follow and i also have the same dog got 2 girls same size wich helps thx u
Currently making this for my cat lol! Thank you for the simple design. It’s super cute! I might add a peplum edge around the bottom too!
I didn't even consider using it for cats! What is a peplum edge? Is that like a tassely or frilly bit so it looks nice?
@@RachelsReptiles Its A Bit Of Frilly Edge, Yes! 😄 💜
It’s so cute!
Thank you lady 🥰
Hopefully you’ve invested in tapestry needles. They have large eye holes for basically any size yarns
I loved this so much!
Like previous commenters, I was looking for an easy way to make Tillie something to wear in the winter. (One wonders how dogs survived for thousands of year before we knitted for them.) Looks easier than the fancy sweaters that need three sizes of round needles. Since I'm a bit more advanced, I think I'll try to rib knit a neck and leg endings. Anybody tried something like this?
Thank you so much for your video, I'm trying to make one top for my puppy.
Did you make it?
I did make it 😁 thank you alot, from Vietnam
I am a knitter for over 25 years and using your knitting needle to slip the cast off stitch over its much faster and for beginners there are many many binde off / cast off tutorials on you tube that show you. Faster way and it's extremely easy and also faster way to knit a garter stitch and cast on stitches I personally would not use the cable cast on as you Yousef as a beginner cast on as it can make your cast on tight for beginners knitters sorrvto knit pick !!
Thats A Variation Of A Cable Cast On... Not A True Cable Cast On So Its Not As Tight As It Looks... I Started Off Doing A Cable Cast On Like That, Only To Learn This Year That It Was Wrong. Oh Well!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
thank you so much♥️✨
Fair play to you 😊😊
Another way is in through the bunny hole and around the tree out through the bunny hole and off she goes is another way to remember how to knit 🧶
I'd like to know or have you show me how you did the back piece because for my dog's back piece I have to have 60 stitches and my needles are metal in straight and they're only like a foot-and-a-half long
Oh, simple hah. She look very cool.
thank you so much!
What are your dog's measurement's? I have a 9 lb maltepoo - Neck is 12.5", back lenght is 8" and chest is 17"
It’s easier to cast on with your hand
I am also a big dinner and when it seems that I put 60 stitches on my knitting needle it's so bunched up and stuff and I need to know how not to have it bunch up
Hey I know this is a bit late but there is a better way to cast on I can kinda explain if u want me to
amaizing
What a great tutorial! I can't wait to try this out. You're so sweet and funny too!
If you were to make something more warm sweater for a dog for outdoor use, would you have any idea how you would do it?
If it was somewhere cold enough that was likely to have rain or snow I would look for waterproof material and attach that over the top. Lots of second hand shops have waterproof jackets and trousers (the really thin material ones) that you can buy very cheap. If that was attached on top it would make a waterproof layer and would also keep in the heat. Unless you're in the depths of winter in Canada you don't want to layer too much on your dog because they can overheat pretty quickly during exercise!
"Ruffly". Hehehe.
How long is the chest piece 🙏🙏
Any way to know how to measure and know how many stitches etc
You'll Want To Follow The Video And Knit A Test Piece...Cast On Maybe 15 Stitches Like She Does, Knit A Few Rows, Then Measure How Many Stitches Are In An Inch Of Knitting.
If Your Pet Has A 4 Inch Chest You Would Multiply The Number Of Stitches Per Inch In Your Test Piece By The 4 Inches To Get How Many Stitches You Really Need.
Now To Cast On For The Back, Follow The Same Formula, Measure From The Back Of Your Pet's Neck To Their Back, Just Before Their Legs, Let's Say Its 9 Inches... Then You Would Once Again Multiply The Stitches In An Inch Of Your Test Piece By 9 And Cast On That Number, Then Knit Quite A Few Rows Until The Piece Can Comfortably Reach Over The Top Of Your Pet's Back, Then Sew It Together Like She Shows In The Video. Good Luck 💚
I should hire you to make Chico a better fitting jumper :)
This is great but why did you not use your needle when casting off?!!
When I say for absolute beginners I am not exaggerating in the slightest. The reason why is because I have no idea how😅 I was taught this way so I continue to do it this way until someone can show me in person another way. I’m not great at learning from reading or just a video unfortunately 😅💔
@@RachelsReptiles OK thank I'm pretty much the same so I feel you. Take care. 🙂🙏
I am no long started to knit and I was warnding how many stiches and that for the body bit and how many rows did you do thanks Ann marie mcfeat
The Amount Of Stitches You'll Need Will Be Different Depending On The Length Of Your Pets Body, And How Many Stitches Per Inch You Have.
For Example: If You Measure Your Pets Body & It's 9 Inches, And You Have 6 Stitches Per Inch In Your Test Piece, You Would Cast On 9 × 6 Stitches For The Length Of The Piece, Then Knit For A Few Rows, And Check The Measurement Until You've Knitted Long Enough To Reach Over Your Pet's Body From One Arm To The Other, Then Sew It Together Like She Shows In The Video. Good Luck. 💙
How many stitches do u cast on for 6 inches for the chest
That completely depends on your own knitting. I used to knit very tight when starting because I wasn't used to it and 1 inch needed near 20 stitches. Now I'm more practiced 1 inch takes about 10 stitches depending on the thickness of the wool. Thicker wool = less stitches. I'd suggest knitting a little practice piece roughly 20 stitches wide and then measure it after a few rows. Don't measure the stitches you first cast on, they will be closer together and not a real representation of the end measurement. Then you can figure out how many stitches you will need😊
Which needles and wool should I use ?
I’ll be honest with you I haven’t a clue what these are or how to tell the difference. I’ve used all sizes of needles and different types of wool and it’s worked so far as long as it isn’t thick needles and thin wool! 😊
I'm using 5mm needles with worsted weight yarn :)
@@RachelsReptiles thank you
@@lauraross2333 thank you
Could you or anyone please recommend sizes for a cocker spaniel please? ❤
Just Measure Your Doggo Like She Does, Knit A Bit With Your Needles, Measure The Amount Of Stitches Per Inch, Then Cast On The Amount Of Stitches Per Inch Of Your Doggo's Chest And Body...
Example: If Your Stitches Per Inch On Your Test Piece Is 7 Stitches In An Inch & Your Dog's Chest Is 7 Inches, You Would Cast On 49 Stitches For The Chest Piece, Then You'd Do The Same For The Body, Arm To Arm, Let's Say The Doggo Has A 15 Inch Long Body, You Would Cast On 15 × 7 Stitches, Then Knit Until The Piece Reaches From The Outside Of One Arm (The Beginning) To The Other Arm. Make Sure Its Loosely Fitting & Then Sew It Up Like The Video Shows. Good Luck 💜
Thank u so much but why do u have to be left handed? 😢 jk! Will definitely try this!
I am right handed😁
What size needles did you use?
And what size wool/yarn
There’s no picture
Can I ask whereabouts you are that you’re trying to watch it? Some people have been saying they can’t view it but lots more are fully able to watch it. Maybe it’s a restricted access in certain parts of the world thing?
how long did it take you to do all this
I think altogether it was 3hours or so, but not in a row. I did a little bit here and there in my spare time over the course of a week.
@@RachelsReptiles oh ok thanks
What? How do you start another row
Once you have the number of stitches you want on your needle you put that needle in your non-dominant hand and have the empty needle in your dominant hand. Then repeat exactly the same moving the stitches from non-dominant to dominant needle. Then swap hands again and repeat😁 if needs be watch the video at a slower speed to see where the wool loops and where to put the needles😊
Can’t see video

Darn. Whole first part is blacked out!

Maybe try refreshing the page, the video definitely uploaded and I haven't gotten any notification of it being removed. If that doesn't work maybe your internet is having issues

What size needles are you using?
When I say I can only very basically knit I’m being 100% genuine, the needles have 8 on them but I have no idea what that means. I’m hoping 8 is the size but it doesn’t say any measurement after 8, just a plain 8. I hope you know what that means.
@@RachelsReptiles Yes Sweetheart Thats A Size 8... I Have A Bunch Of Old Needles That Have Only The Size. Those Should Be Equal To A 5mm In Any Other Needle Brand. I've Been Knitting For An Embarrassingly Long Time, And You Did Well In This Video. I Might Suggest That You Show Your Viewers How To Knit A Test Piece And Measure Stitches Per Inch So They Can Measure Their Pet & Formulate How To Build A Jacket For Any Pet (Since Many Seem To Be Asking 😆) I Like The Striping Yarn You Chose & The Garter Stitch Will Allow The Fabric To Stretch & Breathe Giving Your Baby Comfort & Warmth. Like I Said, Well Done. 💜
