Comments on: February Sweater: Skinny Cat Memorial http://thriftyknitter.com/?p=268 devoted to rationalizing my shameful yarn habit Sat, 23 Feb 2013 14:59:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5 By: kitkatknit http://thriftyknitter.com/?p=268#comment-39254 kitkatknit Mon, 31 Mar 2008 20:38:43 +0000 http://thriftyknitter.com/?p=268#comment-39254 I love your Skinny Bones memorial sweater. Do you have the generic top down pattern (sans your custom chart of course). I haven’t had much luck finding one that I like, and I do like your pattern. Thanks! Susan

Due to my colorwork shortcomings, I replaced the white space with extra checkerboard stitches (leaving a 1-2 st barrier around cats) and added a line to demark the haunches, but otherwise pretty much the same. I made the changes on the paper printout & have long since lost it, but this will help.

I have been collecting cat hair from my own 2 Maine Coon Cats to possibly have added to some fiber to spin someday. And I am always on the lookout for adult patterns with a cat motif. Would you consider sharing your pattern???

I love the idea of a memorial sweater, and I love that you were able to incorporate some of Skinny’s own fur. There’s a part of him there that will always be with you.

Oh, and the way it fits just blows my mind.

Can you teach me to knit a sweater?? I need to be SHOWN. I can’t always grasp it from written directions.
