Meet the Maker

Hi, I'm Elly.
I knit for dogs.

Elly has been knitting for as long as she can remember — it's in her bones. But when her dog refused to go out in the cold without a coat, Pog Barley was born.

Every piece is knitted by hand in her cottage studio in Cornwall, using natural, premium yarns chosen for warmth, durability and how they sit against a dog's coat.

Pog — the dog behind Pog Barley

The original. The inspiration.

The Story Behind the Name

This is Pog.

Every great brand has a heart. Ours had four paws, a scruffy coat and an extraordinary talent for wearing hats. Pog was Elly's dog — her constant companion through every skein of yarn, every finished piece, every new idea. She sat at Elly's feet through it all.

When we lost Pog, we were devastated. But grief has a way of sharpening what matters. Out of that loss came something unexpected — absolute clarity of purpose. A resolve to make something truly worthy of her. To channel all that love into every stitch.

Pog Barley carries her name because everything we make carries her spirit.

"Positivity comes from the most unexpected places. Losing Pog showed us what we were really here to do — make things full of warmth, made with love, for the dogs who mean everything."

Happy Customers

Dogs don't lie.

Neither do their owners. Here's what our Pog Barley family has to say.

My Labrador Biscuit refused to take hers off. The quality is incredible for something so beautifully handmade. Perfect for our Cornish cliff walks.

Ordered a matching set for me and my spaniel. We get stopped on every walk. Elly's work is genuinely stunning and the care shows in every stitch.

What a wonderful small business. Bought as a Christmas gift and the recipient was in happy tears. The love that goes into each piece is obvious.
