Star knitter Sue Stratford's new book is packed with friendly faithful dogs and puppies for you to knit.

Suitable for beginners, but with projects to provide a fun challenge for more experienced knitters, this book contains 23 patterns.

The dogs cover a wide range of styles from the quirky to the fun to the more true-to-life; and while some like Danger Dog are fun toys, others have a more practical purpose, like Stripy Sausage, the dachshund draught excluder.
