My Little Tortie

Both written and charted. ❤️ A special pattern sale ❤️ Sometimes life gives us unexpected challenges. A few days ago, my sweet three month old kitten, Tortilla (we call her Tortie), suffered a traumatic injury that left her with an inguinal hernia. Surgery is her only treatment option, and the unexpected veterinary expenses have quickly added up. So, I'm holding a special sale to help cover her veterinary expenses. Purchase any paid pattern and add **My Little Tortie** to your cart. The doily pattern will automatically become **FREE** at checkout, no coupon code needed. If you've been eyeing one of my shawls, cowls, or other designs, this is a wonderful time to add one to your library. Every purchase helps support Tortie's care, and I'm truly grateful for your kindness and support. ❤️ **Update: Friday, 7 August 2026** I'm so happy to share that Tortie came through her surgery yesterday and did very well. She was such a brave little girl! Now it's time for rest and recovery. Thank you so much to everyone who became part of Tortie's story. Your kindness and support made this possible, and I'm truly grateful. As a thank you to this wonderful knitting community, **My Little Tortie** is now a forever free pattern. Another free pattern will be coming soon as well! Thank you again for all your love and support. It means more to me than words can say. ❤️
