Cat Bed Finished!

I finished the cat bed. I laid it on the table. I put a cat in it.

Cats don't like to be PUT, you know?

So no picture with the cat in it--

YET.



But the lunatic knitter will catch the cat sleeping in the cat bed at some point.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Okay, Okay! Stop laughing! I know it looks like a silly french beret!

The pattern was easy peasy...start with ch4. Join w sl st to form a ring, 6 sc in ring.

Row 2: Add green, 2sc in each sc. 12 sts.
Row 3: Add white, *1sc in next sc, 2sc in next sc. Repeat from * around 18 sts.
Row 4: Add green, *1sc in next 2sc, 2sc in next sc. Repeat from* around 24 sts.

Continue in this pattern until you have *1 sc in next 13 sc, 2sc in next sc. (that's 15 sc in each pie wedge).

Crochet around evenly 2 rows with green.

Next row: 1sc in next 13 sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc (2sc dec=bring up a loop in first sc, bring up a loop in second sc, yo through all three loops on hook).

Next row: 1sc in next 12 sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc.

Work 2 rows even.

Next row: 1 sc in next 6sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc, *sc in next 11sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc. Repeat from * around until you get to the last white pinwheel stripe.

Work 1 row even.

Next row: 1 sc in next 5 sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc, *sc in next 10sc, 2scdec in next 2 sc. Repeat from* around until you get to the last white pinwheel stripe.

Work 1 row even.

Next row: Slip stitch in each sc to firm up the top rim. Weave in ends.

Lay on the table in your cat's favorite place. Place a cat treat there. Hide around the corner and wait for the photo op.
