Using mattress or whip stitch, sew along back of cat and down bottom.
Book: Best in Show: Knit Your Own Cat, p. 117
Authors: Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne
I read that sentence with a mouth full of tea, and Henry Cavendish sitting on my lap. Cav is one of our three cats, a brown tiger very much like the illustration in the book.
The thought of sewing a whip stitch along his back made me laugh.
I wiped the slightly used tea off Cav’s back (it missed the borrowed book) and then I counted the sentences on the page. 1…2…yes, the whip stitch bit was the third sentence in the finishing instructions for the Tabby Cat Prowling pattern.
I’ve got today’s blog post topic!
