Melvin the Mothcat
Level: Intermediate
Languages: English (US terms) and Spanish
If you’re into the creepy-cute vibe, look no further than the newest member of my Myths and Meow-nsters series, Mothcat! This 37-page crochet pattern contains all of the instructions you will need to create Mothman’s cutest cousin, Mothcat, including multiple options for the wings that you can mix and match! The head, body, and legs are crocheted as one piece, which reduces the amount of sewing. There are 60+ instructional photos for this pattern, along with guides for special techniques like surface crochet, instructions for left-handed crocheters when relevant, and a printer-friendly version (16 pages). The pattern uses a two-column format and an easy-to-read font (size 14, sans serif) for easy use on a phone, computer, or paper. It has been thoroughly tested and proofread to be easy to follow. You may sell the finished objects you make from this pattern.
Because this is a digital pattern, I am not able to provide refunds for purchases (unless you have accidentally purchased two of the same product). However, I am happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have. Thank you!
