Why a Cat Mat?

If you know cats, you know that they love lying on things, often bits of paper you have lying around or on your crochet project as you are trying to work on it. So I thought it would be interesting to see if you would appreciate a soft and cozy cat mat.

My daughter is currently visiting with her cats and this was the perfect to time to test out this idea.

As you can see this mat was much appreciated by Abby.

You can place your cat mat in your cats favourite spot on. your window sill as they view the world . or use it on your sofa or their special chair as an extra protection and also give them a cozy spot to sleep.

Are you looking for some other small projects for your home.

If you enjoy making small and speedy crochet projects for your home, I have a pattern for a lovely Super Simple Dish Cloth. This can also double as a spa face cloth. Something else you can make for your kitchen is my Practically Perfect Potholder. These fun patterns are great as they are a nice sized project that you can pick up and make quite quickly and they don’t need much yarn.

Are You A Visual Learner.

For those new to crochet, I have video tutorials on my Carroway Crochet YouTube Channel that will demonstrate how to crochet the single and double crochet stitches as well as other beginner crochet stitches. I have both left and right handed version available to help beginner crocheters.

Here is a video tutorial for the Boho Mug Rug made with worsted weight yarn. Right Handed.

And here it is for those who are left handed.

So here is the Easy Cat Comfort Mat pattern and I hope your pet gets lots of comfy use from it.
