Shadow Cat Pinwheel is the next in my Celebration Pinwheel Doily Collection. The inspiration for this design was our cat, Shadow. We had Shadow for 17-1/2 years and I have included his picture on page 2 of the pattern.
This pattern utilizes front and back post stitches as well as a 4FPdc-Cluster to give the nose some dimension. The cute tail has a little curl at the tip and the ears are raised from the surface.
Shadow Cat Pinwheel measures 15-17 inches in diameter and uses about 450 yds of size 10 thread.
The pattern is presented in 2 columns as I find that easier to track from the end of one line to the beginning of the next line. I also show the round repeats in red to facilitate easy reading. Blue text indicates notes. There are 11 pictures to assist in visualizing the instructions.
My testers were Brenda Dotson, Vicki Owens, and Marsha Seiber.
My new design, Shadow Cat Pinwheel. I used Artiste thread and a 1.75 mm hook. It measures 16 inches and uses 425-450 yds of thread. Shadow Cat Pinwheel is the next in my Celebration Pinwheel Doily Collection. The inspiration for this design was our cat, Shadow.
