Amigurumi Mouse Cat Toy Reviewed by Stephanie on 2009-12-10
Love this pattern! Very easy to follow, and fast. The bottom did have a bit of a gap so instead of fastening off, I left a long string and wove it through to close the gap and then used it as the tail. I am giving these to all the cats in our family and extended family! Thanks for another great, free pattern!
