For cat lovers, these potholders are the perfect accessory—and a wonderful way to show your love for these velvet-pawed four-legged friends. The double sided knitting technique makes the potholders really dense and ensures they look just as great from both sides. If you knit them with slightly thinner yarn, you can also turn the designs into wash or dish cloths.

You could use the pattern also for a pillowcase, or for a sweater, or…? I’m looking forward to your ideas!

For the motif "MEOW" are two different versions included:

Classic double knitting – the letters will appear mirrored on one side.
Advanced double knitting – the letters will appear corrrectly on both sides.

You will find a detailed explanation in the pattern as well as in the knitting chart.

In my shop you will find also the pattern for the scarf "Cat Gang":
