Knit that bundle of joy a sarcophagus!














For some reason, the little shaver doesn't look too happy...


Wiener Wrap, or What I Knit For My Dachshund















Here's Buster encountering Peggy, my inlaws' German shorthair. This creation is one I saved out of a slew of sweaters I knit to sell last winter, before I became gainfully employed. The dang sweater collection has done nothing but languish--all last holiday season at a doggie boutique, then all last spring, summer and early fall at a LYS for their biweekly sidewalk sale coinciding with the Hillsboro Farmers' Market, and now at a local pet supply store. Whateva. They'll come in handy as gifts for the next decade or so.

Buster is modeling the "Halloween" or "Oregon State Beavers" themed sweater. However, it's a bit on the longish side, especially the chest piece--so he's always piddling on it! Fortunately, it's made of Encore (orange) and Cascade 220 Superwash (black.) I can just pop it in the washer. For more formal occasions, here's an oldie but goodie: the KISS logo sweater I knit just for him. SPECIAL NOTE TO GENE SIMMONS' ATTORNEYS: The pictured KISS logo sweater was knit by me for my own personal use; no reproductions of the band's logo have been made to sell, nor have I attempted to sell my original design of the garment.

OK, now that we've got the legalese out of the way, here is the pic:




















I even made an Excel chart for the intarsia. Party on!
