Double sided kitty blanket for extra cushiness!

I’ve been fitting in kitty blankets between other projects. I love this camo one!

I didn’t take a picture before donating our last bunch of blankets. We recently lost our cat to old age. After a time of grieving, we went down to North Bay Animal Services to adopt these two cuties. They are a 12 year old bonded pair and she is blind. We just love them so much! We dropped off a stack of blankets and some kitty toys while we were there.

This was a granny square that went out as far as the dark brown row. It is a thick yarn. I wasn’t sure what I could do with it. I found some washable wool in my stash and added the red and green stripes (finishing up the yarn I had), then finished with a chenille brown. I love the very 70’s look that it has. It will be super cozy and warm for a special cat somewhere.

Tomorrow we will be delivering 28 blankets to the Rohnert Park Animal Shelter for their kitties. That brings this years total to 47 blankets donated so far. Whoo hoo!! 😻😺😽

I was gifted a bin full of granny squares. My daughter and I put together sets of 6-9 squares to make kitty sized blankets. We will stitch them together and donate them when we are finished. I’m so happy to see someone‘s hard work go to a great cause. 🥰

Let’s make more blankets so kitties don’t have to sleep on newspapers on the counter. ❤️

Happy Sunday!

This one ended up different than I thought it would. I love it though!

I like this one. The granny square is so quick to work up. It’s a good way to use up the ends of skeins.

A plethora of kitties for my latest kitty blanket. 😺😻😸

How convenient. I just use the cat on my lap to measure the width of this blanket. 👍🏻😁🐈‍⬛

Our cat, Tootsie says that I need to take a break from crocheting other kitties blankets and give her some attention.

We got a sweet thank you card from Forgotten Felines yesterday. ❤️

January: 19 total blankets being donated to Forgotten Felines. 😻🤜🏻🤛🏻

UPDATE: We dropped these off this morning to Forgotten Felines of Sonoma County.

I haven’t worked since August, 2019. As with a lot of others, 2020 brought so much anxiety for me. Crocheting has been my therapy of sorts. I took it up again with new fervor. I made a queen sized sunflower square blanket for my daughter for Christmas. By far the biggest project I have ever taken on. It made me want to learn more blanket stitches.

I then reached out to the community for unwanted yarn and received more than I imagined I would. I set out to make blankets for kitties in shelters and foster homes and to practice new blanket stitches along the way. In January, my daughter and I made 19 to be donated to Forgotten Felines and one that our cat claimed 🤣.

My hope was to make 50 blankets this year. I might just exceed that. We will have to wait and see. This page will document my progress and the organizations that will benefit. Thank you for coming along for the ride!
