Knit a Little Cat by Rosie Fletcher
WYS Wool Revival, colors Flint & Slate

Perfect for gifting, home decor or as a toy for your own four-legged mischief-makers, Knit a Little Cat by Rosie Fletcher is an adorable pattern for these cute kitties.

Knit in the round, from the bottom up, each cat uses just 60 yards (about 25g) of DK weight yarn & can be customized to create stripes, solids or even variegation with a hand-dyed yarn. Once knit, you will just need a bit of stuffing or catnip & embroidery thread/ spare yarn (we like to use for the eyes as well) to finish.

Rosie knit her striped cat in new West Yorkshire Spinners Wool Revival. WYS is putting their wool remnants to good use! Spun with the excess wool from their quality yarns, Wool Revival is a DK weight, 4-ply yarn that minimizes waste.

Wool Revival has a heritage feel that cats adore & is a durable blend of 80% recycled British wool & 20% recycled nylon. The pattern is also a great stash buster!
