Belted Canine Cape

Warm, practical, and easy to knit! Belted Canine Cape is a beginner-friendly knitting pattern for a cozy wrap-style dog jacket designed for comfort, flexibility, and easy wear. Unlike traditional dog sweaters, the cape wraps around the body and fastens with Velcro straps, making it especially practical for dogs who dislike having clothing pulled over their head or legs. The jacket is worked sideways in one piece in garter stitch, making it simple to follow and quick to knit using thicker yarn. The pattern is written for 8 sizes: Baby, XX-Small, X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, and XX-Large. Pattern features: • 8 sizes • Beginner-friendly construction • Wrap-style design with Velcro closure • Quick knit using thicker yarn • Optional harness opening • Schematics and sizing chart included Techniques used: Backward-loop cast on, k2tog, k3tog, kfb, kfbf. This is a digital PDF knitting pattern, not a finished garment.
