5 out of 5 starsThis is the perfect cooling jacket for my grand-dog! It will keep his super sensitive skin from getting burned and keep him from getting over-heated! Tried it this morning and it was wonderful! Thank you for the super fast shipping and all your help deciding on the right size!

Making a greyhound sweaters starts with choosing the yarn. Maybe an orange sweater today. -

The pieces are knit manually on a knitting machine. The body, chest panel, two sleeves and the turtleneck. -

Blocking the sweater pieces. Steam only. The iron never touches the fabric. Steaming sets the stitches. -

The pieces are sewn together on a sewing machine with a knit overcast stitch. -

Hand sewing the neck and weaving in the ends is the final step.
I donate 10% of all sales to greyhound rescue.
Sewing Cats and Dogs came to existence in July, 2000. After a short job search my son said, "Mom, make dog coats!" I had just adopted my first greyhounds, a brother and sister pair that I named Toby (RL Gamblin Boy) and Pepper (RL Lucky Girl) from Greyhound Adoption of Ohio. I designed the greyhound sweaters three years later when I dragged my old knitting machine out from under my bed and used a pattern for a traditional dog sweater. Several design revisions later I had a sweater that fit a greyhound. Then I found Etsy. I sold my first sweater on Etsy in 2009. I make each sweater and coat carefully to fit your greyhound. All of the coats and sweaters listed on Etsy are made to order. Each item is made in a smoke free, pet full home.
