Knit dog bed
January 12th, 2010
Remember the crochet dog bed?
It was going along fine at first. But then it started to get lumpy. I tried to compensate by adding an extra stitch here and there but it kept getting worse. Maybe I could have fixed it. Instead I said fuck it and frogged the whole thing while in a sour mood.
Then I cast on fifty stitches and started knitting.
It’s nice and flat. But it’s hard to knit because the fabric yarn is so thick.
Maybe I’ll frog this too and just sew Sieben a bed. Thankfully he already has a comfy dog bed so he’s not waiting for this one.

You can do it! I don’t know how big your dog is, but theres a bed in the Stitch and Bitch book. It’s for cats, but if you have a small dog it might work. Found you on Rav by the way!

Laura-Thanks. I remember that cat bed and made a crochet version of it. Prana still uses it. Sieben’s a pretty big dog so I think a rectangle shape will work best for him.
Abbey-I figure I’ll go back to this project once the art show is done.
