Naughty Kitty Ornament
This mischievous feline found itself entangled in the festive glow of Christmas lights. Now, you can knit your own playful kitty ornament to adorn your holiday tree, adding a delightful touch to the season.
Start by creating an i-cord tail and shaping the body of the kitty. Once that’s done, attach the eyes, stuff the ornament with fiberfill, and finish off with a unique combination of a three-needle bind-off and Kitchener stitch. Adding a nose to the mix, the pattern then guides you through threading pony beads onto green yarn, securing them with an overhand knot for a charming finishing touch.
