This is the pattern for a cat potholder. I do have this pattern available for free on my website if you would prefer that option. The link is down below, but I’ve made it available for people to download as well for $1 on Ravelry.

There is also a video tutorial for the pattern available on my YouTube channel at Crochet Cat Potholder Tutorial.

I’ve used 8 ply cotton and a 2.5mm crochet hook but you can use different sizes depending on what you’re most comfortable with.

• I used light and dark grey, green, pink, white and black wool but you could use other colours. I used 8 ply wool which is light worsted in the US and double knitting in the UK. (Don’t use synthetic wool as it would melt).
• A crochet hook, I used a 2.5mm hook.
• Scissors.
• Thread to sew together.
• Sewing needle.
• Darning needle to weave in ends.
• Fine cotton (I used 4 ply crochet cotton) for the whiskers. You could embroider on the whiskers if you prefer.
