My fascination with dog sweaters began when I adopted my first dog, a tiny Pekingese named Yoda.

 
 

As a lifelong knitter, I did not want to outfit her in the usual acrylic thing that could be purchased at the pet superstore. I wanted a garment that was an expression of my love for her. After making the first sweater, I found that I liked making them, and could not stop, as I always had a new idea for how to improve on the design. The solution to all of the sweaters was either to adopt many more dogs, or offer them for sale.

Years later, I am sharing my life with two dogs, Penny, and Gidget Alice, who continue to provide companionship, inspiration, and modeling for many of the images on this website.

 
 

The sweater design is classic, and celebrates the beauty of wool and the surprise of color. So far, no color combination has been repeated. I am always on the hunt for new colors for my palette, and on occasion will cook up a batch of yarn in my kitchen with Kool-aid dye. Wool and wool blends are chosen both for beauty and durability. This is a one of a kind sweater that will last for years.

For the ultimate in luxury, cashmere sweaters are available. Please visit this page often for new models, and consider a Lucky Penny sweater for your best friend, or as a gift for the pet lover in your life.

I am proud to present to you the work of my hands, and the best that my imagination has to offer.
