Dog Sweater and Ball

For March, I knitted a doggy sweater out of Plymouth Encore in gray that I've had for years.  I used a pattern from Knitter's Magazine.

After finishing the sweater and calculating the yardage used (280 yds.), I decided to crochet a small ball for him to play with to make up the yardage needed.

The finished ball, 36 yards, bringing my March total to 316 yards.

The ball is a success!
