weave loose ends back into your work with a
yarn needle.
Face & Bow
-
To make the
whiskers, thread a needle with white thread.
Pull the ends so they are even and knot the
ends together in an overhand knot. You will
be working with a double strand of white
thread.
-
With the
needle, come up from the back of the cat's
head just below the center of the face area
and take a stitch that is approximately 1/2"
long. Come back up at the center
(going from back to front) and take another
stitch. Repeat this 2 or 4 more times for a
total of 4 or 6 whiskers.
-
Glue a small
white or pink pompom on top of the center of
the whiskers and glue two googly eyes above
the nose and whiskers.
-
Cut a 6" piece
of orange yarn. Using a yarn needle,
thread the yarn through the center of the
cat's neck. Remove the needle and tie
the yarn into a bow. Trim ends.
-
Hot glue a 1"
piece of magnet to the back of the cat.
