Wouldn’t this be a wonderful gift for a cat lover. Crochet the pillow case in his/her favorite colors and you will have the perfect gift. You can get creative with the cat’s tail. You have to crochet the tail separate. So you can make it as long as you want and sew it on the pillow as curly or straight as you want.

Size of the pillow is approx. 40 cm x 40 cm/16 x 16 inch.
Yarn weight: DK
You need: 75 grams of black yarn (210 meters/ 229 yds)
160 grams of white yarn (450 meters/492 yds)

Crochet pattern is available in English with American and English crochet terms and in Dutch
The pattern is easy to follow. The stitches that are used are:
American: single crochet (Hook H8 = 5 mm hook)
English: double crochet (Hook 6 = 5 mm hook)
Dutch: vaste (Hook 5 mm)
It is a completely written pattern, but I have added a diagram of the cat.
