TEDDY VEST - woolly edition with zipper is a lovely, soft vest for dogs knitted in soft bouclé yarn with ribbed edges knitted in wool yarn. The zipper is fitted with a coating on the inside. The vest has a double neck edge in rib worked on 3 mm needles, from here it is worked back and forth in bouclé yarn on 5 mm needles (60 cm) in stockinette stitch.
The yarn is fluffy and thick to knit with, and the texture makes it difficult to see and count stitches and correct mistakes. Make sure you have all the stitches on the needle so that you don't suddenly have a runner in the middle of your work.
The recipe's difficulty level is rated 5/5.
