Knit this cute scarf full of sleeping cats for the cat lover in your life! Especially if it’s you.
Every cat I’ve ever known has loved to sleep. Cats can grab a quick catnap almost anywhere. The Catnap Scarf is a series of eight panels featuring scenes with cute, cuddly cats sleeping anywhere and everywhere.
Double knit, the scarf is fully reversible, featuring opposite color schemes on either side. Use two solid colors for a classic look or a solid with a variegated yarn for a more interesting combination (gradual or subtle color changes work best).
The finished size of the scarf is approximately 68 inches (173 cm) in length and 5.75 inches (14.6 cm) in width. The color work design is chart only, not written instructions.
