What Yarn Is Best For This Project?
To create this cute crochet Christmas cat, you will need DK-weight and 3.5 mm and 4.25 mm crochet hooks. The designer recommends using Seasons Flinders Cotton 8ply, but any other acrylic yarn accessible to you will make a fantastic choice. Just keep in mind that if you use a yarn of a different weight, your work might get bigger or smaller than the one you can see in the photos.
How to Crochet a Cat in a Box?
First, you will make five simple squares worked in rows and sew them together to create a box. The cat figurine is then crocheted in the round with simple basic stitches and shaping techniques. Once the cat is ready, you will put it inside the box and attach it securely with a yarn to the walls.
How Long Does It Take To Complete This Crochet Cat?
It’s hard to tell how much time this project is going to take, as it depends on the skill level and general crocheting pace. However, since it’s a small project, you should be able to complete it during one or two evenings. If you’re out of ideas and Christmas Eve is just around the corner, don’t hesitate to give this pattern a try.
