Got emails to send? Procrastinate by knitting a cat who knows what a laptop is really for. (Keeping your bum warm!)
This kit comes with fingering-weight yarn and polyester stuffing to knit a tiny fuzzy white cat and a computer for her to flop carelessly onto.
Featuring Lion’s Mane Suri Lace (74% baby alpaca/26% silk) courtesy of Gnome Depot Fiber right here in Chicago. Also included is Cascade Heritage (75% superwash merino wool/25% nylon) in Charcoal and Real Black.
You’ll need to supply a set of size 1 DPNs and a small tapestry needle.
The cat is a quick, seamless knit.
The computer is worked flat and seamed, with stiff paper inserted for structure—you can use the bobbins that come with the kit for this. The pattern includes five BONUS intarsia colorwork screen options, plus three templates for you to design your own screen graphic!
The pattern comes as an instant PDF download, with the yarn/stuffing kit to follow in the mail.
Packaged in a reusable plastic zip pouch. May include upcycled post-consumer cardboard bobbins.
Computer Cat is modeled after a cat that appears in Anna’s picture book Catside Up, Catside Down: A Book of Prepositions, published in 2023 by Feiwel and Friends. It makes a terrific gift to go with the book!
Also available as a PDF download!
NOTE: The finished project is very small and is not suitable for small children.
