Cat Paws

Introducing an adorable pattern that practically meows its way into your heart! This charming cat mitt pattern is not only easy to follow, but also worked flat with just a tiny amount of intarsia. For those who prefer a simpler approach, you can knit the cat without the color work and instead employ duplicate stitch for the eyes, mouth, and nose. Feel free to change up the colors to create a delightful boy's mitt that everyone will love!

The cats featured on these gloves come to life with user-friendly charts—one for each hand—complete with clear directions on how to work from the chart. The ribbing instructions for both the top and bottom of the mittens are written out for your convenience. Each cat is crafted in stockinette (or stocking stitch) for a clean and professional finish, making this pattern suitable for knitters of all skill levels.

When it comes to yarn selection, we recommend using Cascade 220 Superwash Sport yarn, which we consider to be a dk weight. It works beautifully to achieve a dk gauge. If you opt for a different yarn, ensure it is classified as heavy sport or a dk weight for the best results. Additionally, if you desire a larger mitt size, simply increase your needle size to achieve a 1/2 stitch less in row gauge.

Enjoy the creative process with this fantastic knitting pattern that combines simplicity with charming design. Whether you are knitting for yourself, a loved one, or looking for a thoughtful gift, these cat mitts are sure to bring smiles and warmth. Dive into this fun project today—have fun and happy knitting!
