cat for etsy.



For me, a relaxing night consists of crafting in my underwear while watching "Weeds". I finished another cat. I kinda wanna keep him. He is gray. He wears a cotton scarf. He is a cotton/acrylic blend. I really like natural fibers and have been wanting to try cotton. If parents are buying these woolen dolls, I'm afraid their children will be horrified at the site of shrunken and felted animals in the washer/dryer.

Cotton would be easier to wash and keep clean. I found straight cotton doesn't really have a give and is tough to use. The acrylic blend makes it slightly more flexible and softer.
