    although i didnt use a tutorial. i just used one sock to make the body and both legs. then the other sock made the tail and head. i can try to do some sort of tutorial if you cant find one. got a few to make.
  • Very similar to the ones I make too, got the same heart nose.

    gemsmember - mine doesnt look as good as yours though!! I use hearts for my cats and bunnies cos i used to use heart buttons and thought it looked cute.

    LJM - will have a go either later today or tomorrow morning depending on when kids go to bed. cant promise it will be any good though!!! :P

    Thanks Nuttybabe. I just stuff the head so it is more rounded.

    I use a heart because all my monkeys have a heart sewn on their bum, so this is just a way of incorporating a heart on the cat too.
