Sweater Cats

Cats are cute but cats in sweaters are cuter! The sweater cats are knit in the round from the bottom up with a single seam on completion. Each of the stranded colourwork sweater designs can be worked on any size of cat. The cats here are shown worked in both 100% wool and 100% acrylic yarn. The small and medium sized cats were knit in Knit Picks Swish DK and the large was knit in Knitcraft Everyday DK. Stranded colourwork sections are chart only. **Materials:** DK weight yarn (figures below are for one cat in each size, contrast colour figures are for the max you would need for any one of the cats).
