Mouse (Rat?) Cat Toy


Another present for the kitten!  Made this in a couple of hours this afternoon.  There's a bell inside the nose end, and a pouch of catnip.

The fake fur fabric I bought in John Lewis when I was last in London, and the cord for the tail is recycled (though I can't remember where/what from!)

New Kitten Card - 21 May 2012


Made a card to go with the presents for the new kitten.  

Used several papers which came free in a papercrafts magazine, a scrapbooking sticker ("NEW ARRIVAL") and a picture of a cat I printed from the Internet.  I re-coloured the kitten with an orange pencil ...

Cat Blanket

 





This is a blanket I knitted for Angelique's new kitten.  It's about 14" square, and in denim blue Aran.  The yarn is nice to knit with, but if you try to iron it without a cloth over it, it burns! It's slightly scorched, but it doesn't show too much!!

This is a pattern I've knitted lots of times, in several sizes.  It takes just a coupe of days to knit.
