Black Cat Pillow

 

Available here is a pattern for a crocheted cat pillow.  This pillow paired with my boo pillow is a cute little set for fall. I'm including instructions for both right and left handed crocheters.  If you would like to have a matching pair of pillows with mirrored images, work one in your normal hand and one in the opposite hand.

Stitches used
Foundation Double Crochet (FDC)
Double Crochet (DC)
Chain (Ch)
Single Crochet (SC)
Slip Stitch (Sl St)

Supplies
Cream worsted weight yarn 5 oz. (C in pattern)
Rust worsted weight yarn 1 oz. (R in pattern)
Black worsted weight yarn 1 oz. (B in pattern)
H/8 5mm hook
16" pillow form

Row 1 is worked in FDC, all following rows are worked in DC. All rows begin with a Ch 3 as the first stitch.  Instructions row by row will only show the count for each color worked.  This pattern requires you to know how to crochet graphed patterns and switch colors.

Each row is a total of 60 stitches including the chain 3.  Pillow should be close to 16" finished square, but does not need to be exact.
