These Curious Cats are Fiona Alice’s most recently addition to the Green Forest Gang. Cats are curious by nature and always interested in their surrounds wether they are outside on patrol or watching from a cozy spot inside. This pattern comes with two charts to make yourself a pair with either solid cat faces or tuxedo cat faces. Feel free to get creative and use these charts to help recreate your own pet!

Needles & Notions

Gauge
24 sts per 10 cm / 4” in pattern on 4.5mm (US 7)

Notes
When knitting more than 3 sts of the same colour, tack down the second colour on the WS to prevent long floats. Break yarn, if it won’t be used for the next several rounds in the chart, and leave a tail to weave in later. If you would like a smaller fit you can drop the needle size down to 3.25mm (US 3) & 4mm (US 6).
