Originally, we thought we would be getting an older, four pound dog and her litter mate from North Carolina. The adoption fell through due to scheduling problems. She and her sister would be available a few weeks apart, and the agency would not hold one dog until the second one was ready. We didn't want to make two separate 8 hour round-trips. Although, we were considering it when Molly and Lucy became available locally at Richmond Animal League. While we were applying for the other four pound dog, I knitted a sweater for her. It was hard to find a teeny dog sweater pattern, but there was a free pattern offered on a blog.
When Molly, my six pound dog arrived home, I tried the sweater on for size. It was too small. That's how it goes, when you jump the gun. So I mailed my sweater to Connie, the designer of the sweater pattern. Her teeny dog, Winnie, is sooo cute. Connie's blog, Hartwood Roses featured a nice post regarding our little gift to Winnie. Check it out, the photographs of her roses and historic home are beautiful.
My blue "adjusted" sweater for Molly is coming along nicely. It has an extra long turtleneck and deeper chest to accommodate her ferret physique. It should be ready in the next few days.
