Baby Kitty Costume
"This pattern is best for an intermediate knitter because you will need to keep the seed stitch pattern going while shaping the sleeves and armholes. It’s also best if you have some finishing knowledge as this pattern has set in sleeves and uses snap tape at the crotch area and shoulder, although I found when I was putting him in this that the seed stitch is elastic enough to skip the snap tape at the shoulder. I didn’t even unsnap it and it was still super easy to get over his head. I love the snap tape at the crotch because it makes it more like the onesies you buy at the store. The headband is made in the round with dpn’s and then the ears are made separately and sewn on. I like hats better, but if you have a baby that doesn’t like hats like mine, then a headband might just be the ticket!
