The patterns ate confusing for just new knitters, I have made an arrangement jumper with cable stitches before but these dog jumpers where totally confusing to me, your way to cable e Plains in the definitions of abbreviations, to knit two from left needle, pick up 2 or 3 , again not clear , onto cable needle then knit 2 again then knit from cable needle, geez if you follow the directions you completely run out of stitches, I had to undo 3 times to get it right. Please have people check your patterns not just knit them because they know how to knit.
