crochet pattern release – tail end (a cat toy)

29 March 2013

Patterns often end up very different than how they were first sketched. My cat, Shadow, kept stealing from my production of partially made catnip-filled mice. I finally gave up after he tried to pull one from the crochet hook and finished off just the tail end of a mouse and tossed it to him.

Later that day he was still having fun flipping and chasing and carrying it around the house. That night I woke to find him playing with it in bed.

It took longer than expected to write up the pattern because he kept stealing the samples before I could photograph them and demanding snuggles while I tried to type.

I hope you enjoy crocheting them for the special feline in your life.
