I need help with the ears? Any advice
I enjoyed making this pattern, thank you
How do you make them stand?
Having trouble making ears. Any pointers.
The dress part was hard to understand I made a different one wish I could post a picture
I also love your patterns and have become addicted. I belong to a group who donate to hospitals and nursing homes they love your creations. Thank you.
Thank you! 💖🌹
Your pattern is cute and easy to follow. Thank you I am very happy.
Thank you, Teresa!
Super cute ,I just finished mine, The pattern is so easy to follow!! Thank you so much for sharing your pattern and ideas!!
I’m crocheting the cat with the lavender dress. The uppper part of the dress does not divde in the back, I’m a little confused I’ve went over the pattern several timesand can’t see where it is divided for back. Upper part goes to row 14 with no colour change for the belt, then it jumps to the bottom part?????????
Bottom Part
Join light violet yarn to the edge of the belt. I love all your patterns and enjoyed doing the cat can you let me know where I am going wrong
Thank you
Corinne the confused crocheter.
Hi Corinne 🙂 When working in rows, don’t join with sl st at the end. Turn and crochet in opposite direction.
Hi Corinne the dress starts at the waist and goes up to the neck and then the bottom part attaches to the waist. Hope this helps ,
Nice….
GBU…..
Hola!! hice las 2 gatitas ¿para compartirlas en mi face ( no son para la venta) cómo lo debo publicar?
Gracias por los patrones, todo maravilloso.
Fabiola
Déjà plusieurs que je réalisé ils sont superbes merci
Love the new Kitty Girl.
I made the cats with hats and scarves, and I consider them boys. They are a bit bigger that this pattern. How could I go about if I wanted to make them as a boy/girl pair? Just make longer legs? What would you do?
Thanks
Love, love, love your patterns. I make mine w size F hook and worsted wt yarn. They come out about 13-16″. Too cute for words!The instructions are simple and clear. Dont have to stand on my head to accomplish a tricky part or tear my hair out trying to figure out what you are trying to convey. Thanks ever so!
PS You should be working for Disney.
