Victorian Housecats to Knit

Welcome to the home of the Morgans, a perfectly normal upper-class British family in the late nineteenth century, except perhaps for one small detail—they’re a little obsessive about their cats. This book will take you on a personal tour of their home and garden, introduce you to each resident, and practically pour you a cup of tea. Of course, it also includes knitting patterns along the way. From Aunt Pru’s Persian to the Scullery Cat, there are 20 cat patterns in all for the enjoyment of the proper hand knitter and lover of felines the world over.

Most of the patterns in this book have sections which are worked flat and sections which are worked in the round, so your attention will always be held. A few of them are geared toward the beginner, with shaping achieved by simple increasing and decreasing. Others are more challenging, but even these will be easily accomplished if undertaken with an adventurous spirit.
