Cat for grandmother

I finished a knitted cat for my grandmother yesterday. My grandmother will be 90 within a couple of weeks and is a real cat addict. 

The pattern comes from zijmaakthet.com

It is a mies from mies, kees en teun

The pattern isn't very difficult but you need to know how to do a magicloop or knitting in the round with sockneedles. Sometimes picking up stitches is a bit fiddling.

I knitted the cat with lifestyle from Schoppel.

It is a nice very soft super-wash wool yarn.

I used about 250m (1,67 hanks)

The colour is blue pot. It is a special blend of colors with it's brown, blue and black-white; a mixture of real cat colors together with blue.

I filled it with synthetic pluchefilling so the cat is washable. Normally I prefer to use sheepwol due to it's warmth and structure but this takes much more care when washing.

I bought the pattern end of january and have knitted this cute cat in about 3 weeks in between other things so it isn't a lot of work.
