Since greyhounds come in many sizes and colours I don't want to knit something for the dogs - I haven't even knit Keeper a sweater yet. So, I was thinking of something for the dog owners. Maybe a scarf with a silhouette of greys on the end. I did a quick search for greyhound charts and came up with some crochet items (still not enough to make me learn crochet). I emailed a couple of greyhound owners who knit, they don't know of any charts. So I will be making my own charts (which gives me some time to figure out what I am putting this picture on - not positive about the scarf idea) from the following silhouettes.

Those greyhound craft links are so cool! Love the crocheted hounds :) Good luck with your project, it's going to look great!
Hmm. How about knitting this in shadow knitting? It would be a new technique for you (I think) and could look pretty darn neat, too. A scarf would be a fantastic garment to start with.
Or maybe do the greyhound as planned then add a shadowed Bunny Rabbit or some such prey a little ways up the scarf. I love little "extras" like that
