<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In 2010 the authors appeared live on the Martha Stewart Show, publicizing their first book Pet Heaven. Countless magazine articles, the most productive in USA being a piece in People Magazine, years ago about our sheep sweater worn by Princess Diana. They have written 10 books (seven in the Knit Your Own series), the first published in 2007, most have been published in the USA.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Knit your own beloved pet onto a one-of-a-kind garment you'll adore.</b> <p>Expert knitters--and longtime dog enthusiasts--Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne are famous for knowing exactly what to give dog lovers who knit, which we all discovered in their bestselling book <i>Knit Your Own Dog</i>. Now, they're back with even more ways to knit a new best friend, or show the world the kind of canine pal you favor. <i>Dogs on Sweaters</i> features patterns for 18 popular dog breeds, as well as designs for comfortable, stylish sweaters that are perfect for featuring them. And don't worry if your pup is a rare breed or a delightful mutt--Muir and Osborne have you covered, providing instructions for customizing a dog pattern all your own.</p> <ul> <li>Projects can be shaped and styled to suit men, women, and children.</li> <li>Add words, initials, or your favorite dog's name!</li> <li>Work dog-adorned accessories like hats and scarves, a baby blanket, and even a charming dog coat.</li> <li>Choose from patterns for Labradors, Beagles, Dalmatians, Pugs, Golden Retrievers, Chihuahuas, Labradoodles, Jack Russells, Border Collies, West Highland Terriers, Dachshunds, and more!</li> <li>Or learn how to adapt whichever pattern comes closest to suit your four-legged best friend.</li> </ul><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Muir and Osborne <strong>(<em>Knit Your Own Dog</em>)</strong> have followed up their popular book of knitted canines with a purr-fect sequel for cat-lovers. These cute creatures are surprisingly fast to knit, and the patterns run the gamut from the delicate, sophisticated Persian, to the stealthy, spotted Bengal, to the striped, loveable Tabby, among others. The book's sixteen patterns are divided into four sections: Long-haired, Short-haired, Exotic, and Street. Each pattern has a handful of fun tidbits about its featured feline, and offers lovely pictures of the finished project. The book also details options for knitting standing, sitting, lying down, or curled-up cats, as well as individualizing each cat with added accents like bells, bows, and collars. From fast-knit solo cats to full-blown menageries, these projects are a great way to turn yarn scraps into tiny cuddly companions. --<strong><em>Publisher's Weekly</em></strong>, <em>Knit Your Own Cat</em></p> <p>Thumbs up! The book is absolutely charming. If you knit, and you love dogs, I think you're likely to enjoy it. <em><strong>--Amy Solovay, KnittingandCrochet.net</strong></em></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Sally Muir</strong> and <strong>Joanna Osborne</strong> are co-authors of the bestselling Best in Show series of knitting books.
