What was your inspiration?
A friend of mine posted that they were attending 'National Cat Ear Day on February 25. I had no cat ears. I had to fix this.
What are you most proud of?
They came together rather quickly. I really like the curl that developed without really trying.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Pick a color that reflects your inner cat. Fuzzy, or even eyelash yarn might look better - I worked with what I had.
