This cardigan for cats in four sizes, buttons up on the side of the back, to allow an easier time with dressing recalcitrant pets. It can also be left buttoned and put on like a sweater. It is knitted back and forth in rows from the neck down, but because of the shaping, it’s easiest to use a circular needle rather than straight needles.

The pattern also includes instructions for a mouse to add a finishing touch to your cardigan.

To fit cats with the following measurements. Note that final length is adjustable.

See photos for cat sizes and amount of DK weight yarn needed.
The mice are knitted with 7 yds (6.5 m) fingering weight yarn.
