Lucky Cat

Pattern: Lucky Cat by Curls of Sunshine
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft Party Rich Red Sparkle
Hook: Size H
Notions: camel and light pink felt, DMC thread 310 and 3607
Start/Finish: 1/23-24/2013

This little cutie is a gift for my best friend's mom for the Chinese New Year. Amanda asked me if I could make her mom a polymer clay snake charm for the Year of the Snake, but I didn't have the space in our dining room to do it at the moment so when I saw this pattern online I knew it would be a fun gift for her mom ;)

I think if I make this pattern again I would make the ears and paws smaller. I backstitched the face on felt and glued it to the amigurumi along with the inside of the ears.

It's almost Friday after a long week at work.........which shouldn't have been long since it was a holiday on Monday, but I've had computer problems at work and that always makes the work week longer!! Ugh....

Bright side, my sister and I are going to the first Mardi Gras parade of the season tomorrow night! Woohoo!

Until next time ^____^
