Easy-to-follow patterns for 25 pedigree pooches

So cute, I'd love to make the whole collection! ( )

Although I am not sure I will make any of these, it is fascinating to look at the photos of knitted dogs. There are 25 different breeds represented, grouped by class (Hounds, Sporting, etc). ( )

I'm still a fairly novice knitter, so I somewhat disagree with "Every pattern is easy-to-follow for both new and experienced knitters." Stitches are not defined in the book so, if you don't know the different stitch definitions or techniques, it can be a little confusing. The book is a nice read with little factoids about the breeds. Once you look up the stitches used in the book it becomes easier to understand. I am currently attempting to knit the Labrador, though not exactly in a yarn color that would typify the breed. I had some variegated yarn handy, should make for a dog fit for Rainbow Bright. LOL ( )
