Kitty Puppets
Get ready to create adorable kitties with this fun and engaging knit-in-the-round pattern! Perfect for using up leftover worsted weight yarn, these charming kitties not only bring joy but are also a fantastic way to recycle your yarn scraps. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern will guide you seamlessly through each step.
This comprehensive pattern is worked in the round on double pointed needles, making it an enjoyable project from start to finish. You'll find clear, full written instructions complemented by detailed photographs, so you can easily follow along. Additionally, the pattern includes helpful charts for knitting the tuxedo kitty's unique markings, ensuring your finished project has that special touch. Plus, stitch placement guidelines for embroidering the kitty's face are included, so your kitties will have the perfect expression.
The pattern also includes a simple I-cord technique for creating the tail, and don't worry—using the Kitchener stitch for closing the top of the head and paws is completely optional. You can customize your finishing method to suit your personal preference and skill level.
To complete your adorable kitties, you will need a few additional notions: two 1/2 inch buttons for the eyes, and a yarn or tapestry needle to help you with embroidery and finishing touches.
Once completed, each kitty will measure approximately 5 inches wide by 9 inches tall, excluding the ears and arms. These delightful knit kitties make perfect gifts, decorations, or companions! So gather your leftover yarn and get started on this delightful knitting adventure today!
