Knitting Bee Pattern Notes
This is a particularly cute addition if you’re already knitting toy cats. Rather than another animal pattern, it lets you create a miniature cat world, complete with somewhere to sleep, something to scratch and little balls to play with.
The scratching post is especially fun: the knitted cover is built around a kitchen-roll tube and weighted with rice, with a tiny stuffed bird hanging from the top.
