Notes

This thing is huge. When Celeste isn’t gnawing and/or drooling on it, she uses it for a pillow. It was an instant hit.

Instead of casting on 7, which is a pain in the ass, I did a provisional crochet cast-on for 32 with the MC (Spirited Away), worked the first half of the pill to the end, bound off by sewing through last 7 stitches and tucked in end. Then unpicked provisional, changed to CC and finished second half of pill.

It takes a lot of catnip to fill this thing. Good thing we have two tubs.

Next time, I’ll stick with 20 stitches maximum.
