The Sitting Kitten - and you know you HAVE to make two - twins!

As with all my patterns - minimal seams and join as you go - in this case there is NOTHING that is joined on afterwards (I’m personally pleased to say…)

And I use two strands yarn together - in this case the most beautifully soft Drops Sky together with Drops Kid-Silk… a beautiful combination or kitten-softness!

Stuff lightly and use resin or plastic safety eyes with metal or plastic washer backs. (either 12mm or 14mm - I buy mine from Etsy and Ebay)
