Dinky the cat is a design by Erin Holloway and taught at Palmetto Tat days in 2012. Once again it was taught at Camp Wanna Tat in October of 2019. I gave the Dinky some tufts of hair at the top. We used a unique technique to make those legs. I also used CWJ to keep the spine neat as I joined all those rings.
You may find it a challenge to find those marquise beads with holes in each end for the eyes but bugle beads or small shirt buttons would work too. I used 4mm bicone beads for the feet.
This was a fun pattern to make and can easily be finished in a few hours.
It does look fun. Those eyes are perfect for Dinky!

ReplyDeleteThose eyes remind me of the glasses that were in fashion around 1960. Nice thrown chains. (I think)
