Everyone’s favorite art cats are back with another entry to the Kitties of the Mew-seum! This 23-page crochet pattern contains all of the instructions you will need to create the cat version of Edvard Munch’s famous painting, The Scream, including multiple options for the ears and tail. The head and body are crocheted as one piece, which reduces the amount of sewing. There are 30+ instructional photos for this pattern, along with guides for special techniques, instructions for left-handed crocheters when relevant, and a printer-friendly version (10 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!
