Don’t put away your Halloween things once November hits, Meowlloween is all year long! This 32-page crochet pattern contains all of the instructions you will need to create Willow the Werewolf Cat, including 3 different options for creating the fur on the chest and wolf head! The cat head, body and legs are all crocheted as one piece, which reduces the amount of sewing. There are 50+ instructional photos for this pattern, along with guides for special techniques, a printer-friendly version (12 pages), and instructions for left-handed crocheters when relevant. 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!
