This is a variation on the first chihuahua sweater pattern i made. This one is less stiff and quicker to make. There might be a problem with puppies getting their feet in the double crochet so I don't think I would reccomend for puppies, but for grown chihuahuas around 2 lbs, this should work great.
As with all my patterns, these are for personal use! do not post this pattern anywhere or make these to profit. You may link to it, though. Items made are not to be sold unless for charity. You can donate items made from this pattern to animal shelters if you wish.

little fox pattern
he's gonna be about a foot tall when made. not tested yet, hopefully it you understand it. the chest tuft and bottom of head gets confusing, but just try it as you go and it'll work. PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE THIS! you may link to it but don't copy paste somewhere people will mistake it as your work, because it isn't and it took me hours to get this done.
RULES FOR THIS PATTERN
For personal use only! Don't sell it or things you make from it. You can make as many foxes as you want to give away or for yourself, just don't sell them unless the profit will go to charity.
