Say hello to Claire the Cat, a fashionable tuxedo cat who can’t wait to hang out with you and her best friend Marie the Mouse. Claire’s outfit is inspired by the blooming poppy flower and can be removed for a fun dress-up doll.
Her flower headband is also removable and can even be turned into a pin for yourself.

The main part of this project is worked in rounds so you might want to use a stitch marker to mark the end of each round. There is no specific gauge for this project, just try to keep it tight and even throughout each piece. Claire the Cat measures approx. 14cm (5.5in), when using the same yarn/tools as indicated below and working with the “x” single crochet technique (yarn under, yarn over). Make sure to also start the other stitches with yarn under to keep the same tension throughout.
