For Halloween, a friend made a C0u$!n !tt costume out of yarn and then sent it to me.

So far, that one costume has brought joy to friends around the world (including the person who gave me the yarn) as mice, bears, lap blankets, gingerbread dolls, and so much more.

This pattern includes instructions for a shelf-sitter or hanger (shown) and is perfect for someone learning to knit in the round.
