A cat bed

Otherwise known as crocheting a big circle.

I’ve had a boat load of “crafting” hobbies. But my main textile one was cross stitch. I’ve done it off and on since childhood.

But back in the summer of 2017, I found myself standing in a used bookstore comparing knitting and crocheting books… I walked out with like six crochet ones, drove over to my local craft store for some supplies, and the rest is history.

After a few days of messing around with some cheap yarn to learn the stitches, I made my first piece: a cat bed. Basically just a big circle, but I was really happy.

I used a free pattern I found on ravelry for a one skein cat bed . My project info.

Details Yarn used: Lion Brand Heartland–105 Glacier Bay [Hook: 4.5mm]
