Construction Notes:
The cat kerchief is worked back and forth in single crochet with increases and decreases to create a triangle kerchief with ties. Once completed, an accent color can be used to embroider flowers (or other motifs).

Finished Dimensions:
Version A (Short): 39 cm | 15 in wide; 8 cm | 3 in long
Version B (Long): 39 cm | 15 in wide; 13 cm | 5 in long

This pattern is very customizable! Simply measure the circumference of your adorable feline or canine friend, crochet the increase portion of the kerchief (not including the ties) until you reach half the length of the measurement. Then, complete the decease portion.
