Afterall, there are kitty beds, dog sweaters, mitties, footsies and the like, but I've NEVER seen a horse item. Strange. They are pets too, ya know. Expensive ones at that!
So, I went perusing.. Nope, nada, nuttin. Google "knits for horses". Now, you can find patterns to knit horses on sweaters or for model horses, but, not for a horse, of course.
I did find this one item.. A crocheted fly bonnet/mask for a horse. I can't imagine my "cow chasing" horse wearing this and not being embarassed as well as me being seen putting it on my horse. Here's a picture:
I did ponder knitting a winter blanket for my horse since they do wear them, but, after the rolling in manure, their pasture mates playing who can rip the other's blanket the most and the overall effect of outdoor weather in Chicagoland ALONG with the cost made me change my mind quite quickly.
I guess I'll just have to revert back to thinking about all the wonderful new sock yarn I have and start lining up patterns for them!
