Pullover for Mukti's grandson

I had promised to make a pullover for Mukti's 2.5 year old grandson.Thankfully I could completed this sweater before winter completely departed from Kolkata. Knitting after a long time was a good change from the crocheting that I had been doing at a frenetic pace.

I included a dog pattern that I took off a cross-stitch site after working out a way to weave in both colours together, as suggested by my mother, so that the reverse side turned out really neat. i started each side with 70 stitches and # 8 and 10 needles. The sleeves started with 30 and went up to 48 stitches. I needed approx 5 balls of wool
