Start making for Christmas this weekend...

here's a free pattern, taken from knit and purl pets, for you to begin your christmas makes. your very own car companion (to keep or give away). she (or he) will sit very calmly and quietly on your dashboard as you drive. this particular greyhound is in fact appley peach's new companion and she is called 'the princess snowdrop'! i'd love to know what you think - of her, not her ridiculous name! do drop me a line - and if you can't gain access to the pdf, i'll email it to you! take care and have a great weekend.

    A friend of mine in the states just found your blog and e-mailed it to me because of the gorgeous Princess Snowdrop! I'm addicted to retired racing greyhounds, and presently have four. Three of my greyhound friends also knit and have hounds of their own. Like others above, I tried downloading the pattern, but can't get to it. I would love to purchase the pattern, and any "clothing" you have designed for him/her. Often I make things to donate to auctions that raise money to help greyhounds get to their forever homes. This would be a huge hit! Let me know how I should proceed.

    Thanks,

    Hi Claire!
    Been knitting Zoom from Knit and Purl pets for the last couple of days but I'm struggling with his back end!! Just wondering if there were any errata for the pattern but couldn't download this one to check. Please could you email it to me?
    I love your work! My (20 yr old) son loves the chameleon I made him!
    Many thanks

    Hello!
    My mother in law just lost her wippet a few years ago and was pretty heart broken. When I saw this pattern I thought it would be a perfect gift for her, unfortunetly I cannot open it! Would you be able to send it to me? Thanks, krissy.doll@hotmail.com
