Cocker Spaniel Snood

🐾 Ears out of dinner. Personality fully included. Meet The Biscuit Bandit: a cheerful dog snood knitting pattern for cocker spaniels and other long-eared dogs with suitable measurements. A soft ribbed tube holds floppy ears gently back for a brief, supervised meal, while lemon cuffs and a coral “jam stripe” bring a little fun to dinner time. 🧶 Two rows, one seam Knit flat on straight needles using a simple 2 x 2 rib. There are no increases or decreases, no crochet and no circular knitting. Choose the colourful striped design or follow the included one-colour option. 📏 A pattern that starts with your dog Three starting recipes have calculated relaxed circumferences of 33.3, 36.7 and 40 cm at the reference gauge. A measuring guide, swatch instructions and a worked custom-size example help you choose width and coverage length separately.
