AerieDesigns Greyhound Sweater Crochet Pattern File Combo PDF

Sat, 05 Dec 2009 13:50:20 -0500

$10.00
Here is a set of 2 crochet patterns to make sweaters for your Greyhound.
1. QUICK & EASY GREYHOUND SWEATER Crochet Pattern File:
This is a pattern to crochet a sweater for a Greyhound or similar size dog. The design features a snood which can be worn separately. Both sweater and snood have leash openings so they can easily be worn on walks. (Special Note:The snood pattern was recently added to this sweater pattern. If you purchased the Quick & Easy Sweater pattern prior to 2008 and would like the Snood add-on free, just write us!). The snood pattern is also sold separately for those would don't need the sweater pattern.

The pattern uses bulky weight yarn and is designed with very simple crochet stitches so you'll have your sweater finished before you know it. Perfect for folks with multiple hounds to keep warm! And as a bonus, the pattern includes directions for a simple-to-make sweater for a little dog, too. So your Pug, Italian Greyhound, Chinese Crested or other small dog won't be left out in the cold.

The pattern has been fully tested and was designed with yarn that is easily available in a wide variety of colors. Our design includes directions for 2 closure options (pull-over or buttons). The sweater is perfect for cooler days but is not recommended to replace a heavy coat in freezing weather.

2.FISHERMAN STYLE GREYHOUND CROCHET PATTERN FILE:
This is a pattern to crochet a sweater for a Greyhound or similar size dog. It uses 4 ply yarn and is designed to look like a sporty Fisherman knit pullover. Your completed sweater will measure 25" along the back and is easy to put on with a strap under the chest. You can make a larger or smaller sweater by experimenting with different yarn and crochet hook sizes.

Also included is the pattern for the separate hood. It slides over the hound's head for extra warmth on very chilly days. This ensemble is perfect for cooler days but is not recommended to replace a heavy coat in freezing weather.

These patterns are in PDF file format. Within hours of payment, the patterns will be sent to your email address as email attachments. You can print a copy or use the pattern right on your computer screen.

Over the years I have been told that I am an artist. I decided to use that talent to help those who cannot help themselves. I make custom items on request; please feel free to contact me for pricing.

thedoghouse - SANTA'S LITTLE HELPER hand printed snow white and crimson red on festive green cotton Christmas stocking

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 05:17:18 -0500

$15.00
Inspired by Simpsons character & infamous animated greyhound, 'Santa's Little Helper', this Christmas stocking features an image of my own rescue greyhound, Max, wearing reindeer antlers. Photographed in his reindeer attire last Christmas, I can assure you that Max received lots of turkey titbits in exchange for his co-operation!

After converting the photograph of Max to a monochrome image, I hand screen printed it onto the stocking along with the caption 'Santa's little helper' using non-toxic fabric ink. The ink has been fixed using heat, making it resistant to machine washing at 40°C, dry cleaning & ironing on a cotton setting.

The stocking measures 32cm (heel to toe) x 43cm (height) & is made of 100% cotton in festive green with contrasting white stitching at the edges. The image & text are printed in snow white ink, with the greyhound's nose picked out in crimson red.

The perfect Christmas gift for any greyhound lover, why not stuff this brimful with doggy treats & toys & spoil your hound rotten this Christmas!

This item is ready to ship.

NOTE TO UK SHOPPERS

The stocking costs approximately £10 (currency conversion correct at time of listing).

Janet Crowley's HoHoHo Walking Martingale Walking Lead- Large Dog Size

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 21:56:56 -0500

$14.99
Greyhound, Saluki, Afghan Hound or any medium/large breed

Collar/Leash Combo

This is constructed as a single unit. Collar and leash attached.

The dress lead being offered is trimmed with a cotton print fabric. A light padding underneath gives the face more body and softness. It is flanked by red satin ribbon trim and a white/silver satin ribbon trim along each side. The red webbing base is 800lb test polypropylene. The collar part is 2 inches wide and about 13 inches from ring tip to ring tip. This will fit a greyhound or similar size dog with a neck size about 14 inches to 15 or 16 inches. The leash part is made of 1 inch webbing about 6 ft long.
It is fully lined with the same cotton print fabric and padded for extra comfort.

What is a Martingale Walking Lead?

A walking lead is a collar/leash unit used for walking. The collar part slips over your dog’s head and the small plastic ring on the leash slides up or down to adjust for a snug fit Candy demonstrates how this is worn. This is made as a single unit. The leash is not detachable. My leads are designed primarily to fit sighthounds (who can easily back out of a regular collar and leash), but also work well on other breeds of dogs.

The collar part of the greyhound lead is 2” wide and measures about 13'' to 16'' from ring tip to ring tip, depending on which lead you choose. The whippet sizes are either 2” or 1 ½” wide (depending on the one you choose) and about 10”’ to 12” from ring tip to ring tip. The Italian greyhound sizes are 1 ½ ” or 1 ¼” wide and 7” to 9 ½” from ring tip to ring tip. Again depending on which lead you choose. Measure at the skinniest point of the neck-usually right behind the ears and again a few inches down where the bottom of the collar will rest. Somewhere between them will determine the correct size. When the slide on the leash is snugged down, it will pull the rings on the collar section together. The rings should not touch. There should be at least a 1/2'' space between them. The best fit is 1'' to 1½ “ between them.

The entire unit is constructed of 800lb test polypropylene webbing for the greyhound size and 600lb weight for the whippet and IG sizes. The leash part is about 6 ft long. The D-rings are heavier-weight, zinc plated, welded steel for the larger sizes-- lighter weight, unwelded steel for the smaller sizes.

Hound's Closet's Snowmen- 2 Inch Martingale Collar

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 10:48:04 -0500

$20.00
Cheery snowmen quilting fabric with red cotton lining. Collar is 2" high and will fit up to an 18" neck. Sewn on an industrial machine with triple seams for safety. Hardware is solid nickel with welded d-ring. This collar is also available as a regular buckle collar. If you have any questions just convo us.

What is a martingale collar? A martingale collar is made in two parts and one part tightens when you pull on the leash. The collar is made so the dog can not slip the collar off over it's head when on a leash. Instead of trying to explain I have added two photos showing a leash being pulled in one and how it looks normally in the other. Dog tags should not be attached to the d-ring but to one of the side slides.

thedoghouse - PAW PRINT hand printed snow white on crimson red cotton small drawstring bag

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 13:43:55 -0500

$6.00
Inspired by the muddle of paw prints my own 2 greyhounds leave around the house, this cute little bag feature a single paw print on one side.

I hand screen printed the paw print onto the bag using non-toxic fabric ink. The ink has been fixed using heat, making it resistant to machine washing at 40°C, dry cleaning & ironing on a cotton setting.

The bag measures 10cm (width) x 13cm (height) & has a drawstring at the top. It is made of 100% cotton in crimson red, with the paw print image printed in contrasting glistening white.

This handy little sack is perfect for storing your dog's treats or poo bags in when you are out for a walk: it slips nicely over your wrist. It would also make an ideal change purse or a lovely gift bag. Bright festive colours make this the perfect Xmas gift for any dog (or cat!) lover.

This item is ready to ship.

-Note to UK shoppers-

The bag costs approximately £4 (currency conversion correct at time of listing).

Hound's Closet's Snowflakes For Sale- Martingale Collar- 2 Inch

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:58:08 -0500

$20.00
"Snowflakes for Sale" 2" martingale collar that will fit up to a 18" neck and 2" high. Quality cotton with black cotton lining over webbing.

Colors shown in photos may appear lighter or darker on your monitor than actual color.

What is a martingale collar? A martingale collar is made in two parts and one part tightens when you pull on the leash. The collar is made so the dog can not slip the collar off over it's head when on a leash. Instead of trying to explain I have added two photos showing a leash being pulled in one and how it looks normally in the other. Dog tags should not be attached to the d-ring but to one of the side slides.

Janet Crowley's Blue Martingale Walking Lead, Italian Greyhound, Small Dog Size Iblu028

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:21:24 -0500

$14.99
8 “ Italian greyhound, Small whippet, or any small breed dog

Collar/Leash Combo

This is constructed as a single unit. Collar and leash attached.

The dress lead being offered is trimmed with an embroidered floral ribbon. A light padding underneath gives the face more body and softness. The sides are adorned with 2 shades of blueue satin ribbons. . The blue webbing base is 600lb test polypropylene. The collar part is 1 1/4 inches wide and about 8 inches from ring tip to ring tip. This will fit a small dog with a neck size about 8 1/2 to 9 or 9 1/2 inches. The leash part is made of 5/8 inch webbing about 6 ft long.

It is fully lined with a solid blue cotton fabric and padded for extra comfort.

What is a Martingale Walking/Dress Lead?

A walking lead is a collar/leash unit used for walking. The collar part slips over your dog’s head and the small plastic ring on the leash slides up or down to adjust for a snug fit Candy demonstrates how this is worn. This is made as a single unit. The leash is not detachable. My leads are designed primarily to fit sighthounds (who can easily back out of a regular collar and leash), but also work well on other breeds of dogs.

The collar part of the greyhound lead is 2” wide and measures about 13'' to 16'' from ring tip to ring tip, depending on which lead you choose. The whippet sizes are either 2” or 1 ½” wide (depending on the one you choose) and about 10”’ to 12” from ring tip to ring tip. The Italian greyhound sizes are 1 ½ ” or 1 ¼” wide and 7” to 9 ½” from ring tip to ring tip. Again depending on which lead you choose. Measure at the skinniest point of the neck-usually right behind the ears and again a few inches down where the bottom of the collar will rest. Somewhere between them will determine the correct size. When the slide on the leash is snugged down, it will pull the rings on the collar section together. The rings should not touch. There should be at least a 1/2'' space between them. The best fit is 1'' to 1½ “ between them.

The entire unit is constructed of 800lb test polypropylene webbing for the greyhound size and 600lb weight for the whippet and IG sizes. The leash part is about 6 ft long. The D-rings are heavier-weight, zinc plated, welded steel for the larger sizes-- lighter weight, unwelded steel for the smaller sizes.

A Word of Caution

All of my leads and collars are fairly wide and well padded. But, be careful of using any type of choke collar on tiny, delicate dogs. If your little guy pulls or struggles in a collar, he could possibly injure his throat. For these types of dogs, a harness or harness vest may be a safer alternative.

Hand wash cold water, hang to dry.

thedoghouse - SQUIRREL PATROL hand printed yellow on navy blue cotton doggy bandana

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:04:01 -0500

$13.00
This cute bandana features an image of a squirrel captured on camera by my partner's mother in her garden in Oldham. We don't get to see many squirrels in our own garden on account of our 2 greyhounds who're on constant patrol for any small furry critters!

After converting the photograph to a monochrome image, I hand screen printed it onto the bandana along with the caption 'squirrel patrol' using non-toxic fabric ink. The ink has been fixed using heat, making it resistant to machine washing at 40 ° C & dry cleaning.

The bandana is triangular & measures approximately 50 X 50 X 75 cm. It is made of 100% cotton in blue with the image & caption printed in contrasting yellow. Perfect for any medium-large sized dog, especially if they're a fan of 'small furries'!

SPECIAL THANKS

This cute bandana features an image of my friend Lois's dog Max jumping through a hoop. Lois is the founder of Gracehounds, a small local charity dedicated to finding permanent homes & a better life for sighthounds, like Max, who would otherwise be abandoned or destroyed after their short racing careers.

Hound's Closet's Pretty in Pink- Martingale Fits Up to 16 Inch Neck- 1 1/2 Inch

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 04:08:43 -0400

$18.00
Pretty pink and peach flowers with gold overlay martingale, 1 1/2" tall and will fit up to a 16" neck. Quality cotton fabric with tan/gold satin lining. Nickel hardware with welded D-ring and triple stitched seams for safety and strength. Fabric collars are intended for dress up and will wear well. If you walk or jog with your dog daily I would use a nylon collar as constant pulling on the martingale will fray the edges of fabric. This collar may be handwashed in cool water and air dried.

Martingale collars are popular for sight hounds such as greyhounds. Dogs with heads smaller than their necks can easily slip out of the collar on a lead. Martingales are designed to tighten when the dog pulls on the lead.

Greytdays-greyhound print mounted on foam board

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 11:04:36 -0400

$7.00
This is a print from one of my paintings, it is 8 1/2X11 and mounted on foamboard. The finish is semi-gloss. You can place it in a stand, hang it on a wall or frame it up to look really finished. Nice little piece of artwork if you don't have a lot of space. This item benefits handmade4hounds and I donate to various groups through my greytdays etsy shop.

thedoghouse - TRICKS FOR TREATS hand printed white on black cotton small drawstring bag

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 11:01:27 -0400

$6.00
Inspired by the willingness of my own 2 greyhounds to do almost anything in order to receive one of their favourite edible rewards, this cute little pouch features the caption 'tricks for treats'.

I hand screen printed the caption onto the bag using non-toxic fabric ink. The ink has been fixed using heat, making it resistant to machine washing at 40 ° C, dry cleaning & ironing on a cotton setting.

The bag measures 10cm (width) x 13cm (height) & has a drawstring at the top. It is made of 100% cotton in black, with the caption printed in contrasting white: 'tricks for' on one side & 'treats' on the other.

This handy little sack is perfect for storing your dog's own favourite treats in: it slips nicely over your wrist or into your pocket. It would also make a cute children's candy store at Halloween!

-Note to UK shoppers-

The bag costs approximately £4 (currency conversion correct at time of listing).
