Are you ready to spread some Christmas cheer (and, perhaps, a little mayhem)? Well, the Candy Cane Christmas Cat is sure to do exactly that!

Crochet pattern for your very own Candy Cane Christmas Cat.

Finished size: 10 inches high (25 cm)

Level: Practiced Beginner
I say ‘practiced’ because some of the crocheting in the round on a small hook can be quite fiddly and may need a bit of practice if you’re not used to it.

This pattern has 15 pages, and 29 colour illustrations to help you on your way.

Skills: Crocheting in the round, basic sewing (and perhaps some ability to weave magic)

Hook: 2 mm (US 0)

Yarns: Fingering Weight Wool; Crochet Thread

Extras: 16 mm safety eyes; fiber fill; 18 gauge stem wire; wire cutters; felt; thread/needle; white/black acrylic paint; paint brush; clear nail polish; red seed beads; gold bead

Note: The Candy Cane Christmas cat is not a toy and is not suitable for small children. It is meant for decorative purposes, but could be gently played with by older children.
