CAT MAT BASED ON ORIGAMI POT PAD
MATERIALS:
Size M (9 mm) hook
SIZE: 15 inches square
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nq_7EXTWHE&feature=youtu.be
DIRECTIONS:
With two strands of yarn held together throughout, Chain enough to make a loose chain the length of the DIAGONAL. (47 chains made about 15 inches)
Sc in the second chain from the hook. Sc in each chain to the end of the chain. Sc back to the beginning in the free loops of the beginning chain.
Sc in the top of the first sc and every following sc around until the work measures half as high as it is wide. When a neat diagonal is attained, finish off the work leaving a tail about twice as long as the area to be seamed.
Whip stitch up along the diagonal to yield a flat, square thick pad.
SIZES: Woman’s average and large
NOTES:
1. Read instructions through before beginning.
2. For the M1, make one I did it two ways, a yarn over and this one: http://www.lionbrand.com/how-to-knit-increasing-between You choose which one you prefer. The yarn over makes a bit larger hole. I like the hole as a decorative element.
3. The first picture is Red Heart Super Saver color Cool Stripe. Second picture is RHSS Monet.
