Yes, another cat bed! On one of our many trips to Michaels, we became enamored with the Bernat Blanket Big yarn because it was a jumbo yarn on sale, and we had never worked with such thick yarn before. We purchased colors that nearly matched our site colors… just because!
We made one bed out of one skein and gave it to the cats for testing. It was a hit!
One of these beds can be crocheted in about fifteen minutes.
Notes:
This pattern is worked in the round without joining.
An increase (inc) means to work two of the same stitch in the same space. In this pattern, when you see “inc,” you will work 2 sc BLO in the appropriate stitch.
Materials:
- 30mm hook (or use your fingers)
- 1 skein of Bernat Blanket Big
- stitch marker (we use binder clips)
