Felted Siamese Cat Reviewed by Lady Enfinity on 2009-07-16 *****
Very easy, very fun pattern.
My results were a lot larger than expected, but this is not a bad thing at all!
This is the first time I've completed a pattern provided on the Lion Brand website.
I do, however, suggest that you make use of the Magic Ring to start off your rounds. If you've never used one, just Google "Magic Ring Crochet" and you'll find many helpful videos on the subject that will teach you this technique.
I did a reverse version with a bright blue body and white face, ears, legs and tail.
I used a thicker yarn, in Blue Mint and White.
I'll post a picture when I'm able to.

Good luck and I hope you enjoy this terrific pattern!
