Knitting for Australian Dog Rescue Groups

Knitting for Australian Dog Rescue Groups We have since then grown beyond our wildest dream with many people joining us. Fast-forward to 2024 I ( Chantal ) have decided to retire from KFADRG.

In March 2012 , we Chantal and mum) started knitting doggie jumpers to give to various Australian Dog Rescue groups for their dogs and kitties to keep them warm in winter and to express our thanks to all the rescue groups for their tireless efforts. RESCUES IN NEED OF COATS please make yourselves known it will make my job easier ;-)

Back then some people had shown an interest in doing the same so we decided at the time to start this page to help coordinate our combined efforts AND to inspire other knitters. I will send out all the remaining coats and blankets come winter 2025 by then Kellie Davidson will take over this endeavour , she needs to start building up a collection in order to do so . All items can be sent to
