Anything is pawsible!

Like furvently knitting two jumpers in one month…

I can hear you all going ‘your kitten me, two jumpers?!’ but these are a modified version of Malana by Kelly Menzies, knit on larger needles and the ratio of knit rows to ‘drop stitches’ has been squeaked to make the stripes pop.

Mew can probably guess that these are inspired by the one and only Cheshire Cat. Classic pink/purple Disney version and the Tim Burton, blue/grey version. Although fur real here, who doesn’t feel he took some inspawration from American McGees Alice?

The reason fur these is that Rabbie and myself are planning on a short sister’s/girls trip to Disneyland Paris in a few months. Rabbie loves her Disney bounding, and after tossing many ideas around, we decided to keep it simple and go fur the Cheshire cats.

Although I have been purr-omised a Maleficent inspired bed coat!

There will be a mew more things related to this that will be getting knit and being shown here, so you had best be feline ready for many more cat puns to come!
