This dog sweater style with raglan sleeve (is a type of sleeve whose distinguishing characteristic is to extend in one piece fully to the collar, leaving a diagonal seam from underarm to collarbone) is often used in dog clothes.
Personally I like it so much because it gives a retro and sporting look to the clothes.
Tips:
1-You must keep in mind that this is a design that it has to be put by the animals head by the way is necessary that the fabric or tissue we use must be elastic.
2-With this pattern you can use fine fabrics for summer or thick fabrics for winter.
Here are some pictures of the dog jersey and at the end of the post you can download the patterns for the size of your dog.
And here are the pictures of the fabric pieces according to the patterns:
Back pattern:
I made it in two colors (pink and yellow) but the pattern is not prepared for that, it's prepared to making just in one piece.
Chest pattern
The sleeves:
IMPORTANT: You must cut the left sleeve opposite to the right sleeve,
then you can cut it with the fabric folded with right sides facing .
Like this you will get the right and the left sleeve.
Complements:
Strip for the neck and a heart (optional) figure for adorn.
A picture of all the dog sweater patterns below:Note that have to cut the back and chest pattern with the fabric folded by the half, so when unfold the fabric will get the complete piece.

I just recently downloaded this pattern and made one for my dog. It was easy and very cute. the only thing I would do to improve the pattern is to make sure and let novice seamstresses know is when you are cutting this out of anything with stretch to it that it needs to go across the garment, and that the neckband needs to have the stretch go across the long side of the band. I love this pattern! Now I have to make one for my sister's dog after she saw the one my dog had on!
ReplyDeletethe idea is great, but for the life of me I cant figure out how does the sleeves go, it took me some time to figure out you need to have two copies of the chest and back to make it, don't understand why it doesn't come in one pattern.
ReplyDeletealthought I couldn't make it, thanks , i'll learn how to sew properly before I try this, although it would be gret if you made a step by step on how all the pieces go together.
I agree with the step by step suggestion :)
Deletehelp I need help to sew this togther? how do i put it all togther?
ReplyDeleteHi! I just downloaded the small size pattern and was also confused as to how it all went together. The best way I can explain it to u is this way. Look at the sleeve diagram. notice that the sleeve is labeled on the top of diagram as neck, the side accordingly, one for the chest, which is the longer of the two, the short one sews onto the back. Now here comes the tricky part. notice that the diagram of the sleeve says SEW on both bottom sides of the sleeve. That means that those two parts are to be sewn to each other, but only after you have sewed the sides of the sleeve to the chest and back, but you have to stop when u reach the end of curve on the side of the chest/back. It took me like 4 hours to figure it out! I was sewing the whole sleeve onto the side of the chest and back, so it would not form the sleeve. I hope this helps.
DeleteOMG, thank you! I was super confused too.
Deletethanks for the explanation!
ReplyDeleteof course first you have to sew the sides of the sleeve to the chest and back and after sew the bottom parts of the sleeve one to each other.This is the way most recommended!
Thanks
Thanks Mimi, your explanation was much better than mine.
DeleteGreetіngѕ! Very useful advice within this article!

Thank you very much for sharing the patterns...
ReplyDeleteThe sizing chart is very useful but is it also possible to have the sizing chart in terms of kilograms??
thank you...
I think that having the sizing chart to be in kg would only help if it was by different breed of the dog. You see, my dog is bigger than my friends, yet she is almost a kilogram lighter than her dogs! Different dogs have different masses in them, so the best way to size up your dog is to go and buy a tape measure and size your dog up. Or did you mean you wanted the sizing chart to be in cm? If that is the case, you could just Google "inches into cm" and that would help you to convert your cm in to inches, and then compare the measurements you took to the chart. Its fairly easy when you use the Google to help you. But if you DID mean kg, I know that some shops offer clothing by the weight of the dog, but in this case, you are making the clothing for your dog your self. In my opinion, this makes the clothing more accurate and fitting than the once sold in stores.
DeleteTruly an amazing page. I like what you've got in here. thanks for the share. Totally interesting indeed. thanks!
