If you look from above you see stripes, viewed from an angle a cute playful kitty appears. This is a fun, colourful project to brighten up your home.

I have made a dishcloth. You could equally use the square to form part of a blanket project. Why not make kitties in different colours and sew the squares together?

Suitable for a beginner knitter.
