It’s a CAL (Crochet Along) for these adorable Purrr-fect Kitty Socks! Crochet a pair for yourself or a friend. You can make them whimsical or functional. You are the designer so you get to choose! This pattern is a great stash buster! I used left over Red Heart Super Saver!
I really like the striped cuff with a shell edge on the pair pictured. Leave off the cat nose and whiskers and it becomes functional. The striped ribbing on the cuff seems to have a swirled effect.
If you would like to add these to your Ravelry que or purchase finished PDF you will find the Purrr-fect Kitty Socks here and the Kitty Cuff Socks here. The patterns will be discounted during the CAL, including the “Purrr-ty Kitty Socks” Ebook.
Adding flannel pads to the “Purrr-fect Socks” makes them so cozy. I was so inspired by the kitty cat flannel that I had to make a second cuff with a “Kitty Cat Stitch”. The nose and whiskers was next. If you are a dog lover add puppy dog flannel. It shouldn’t be hard to add a dog nose and tongue, should it?
WAIT! There’s more, a “Contrasting Heel” and the pattern is written so that you can add a Contrasting Toe also. This makes 6 options.
1. Cat Nose and Whiskers
2. Striped Rib Cuff with Shell Edging
3. Kitty Kat Stitch Cuff
4. Contrasting Toe
5. Contrasting Heel
6. Contrasting Toe and Heel
You will find the first segment of the pattern below, but please go to the group page and ask to join, Canoe Mtn Designs FREE Crochet Patterns and Mini CALS The group is where live chats will happen and a printable pattern for the flannel pads will be posted, when we get to that part in the CAL.
