One, two, three… three little kittens! Did you tie yourself a kitten? No? Why? They are so mischievous, wonderful and cute! All children love them! And you?

The sleeping kitten knitting pattern is simple, suitable for both beginners and experienced knitters.

The little sleeping kitten can become your favorite soft toy. You can present to children as the very scheme for knitting a sleeping little kitten and tie it together with the children. You can knit it yourself in 3 hours and make a tiny gift to your mother or sister.

We knit with two pointed knitting needles, the third helps. We knit around.

Knitting pattern:

The pattern is knitted on two needles with a double point. We knit in a circle on two knitting needles, the third is working.
