Cats are cute but cats in sweaters are cuter!

The sweater cats are knit in the round from the bottom up with a single seam on completion. Each of the stranded colourwork sweater designs can be worked on any size of cat.

The cats here are shown worked in both 100% wool and 100% acrylic yarn. The small and medium sized cats were knit in Knit Picks Swish DK and the large was knit in Knitcraft Everyday DK.

Stranded colourwork sections are chart only.
