I thought about putting a cat blanket together not long after starting on my mouse one, and i have now managed to get all the pieces finished off and attached. I love the eye detail on this blanket, I really wanted them to stand out and using the bright green colour definitely achieved that.
The pattern is available over on my Etsy shop along with the mouse, frog, pig, puffin, and other animal blankets.
I’ve been working on a few more hooded blanket patterns over the last few weeks and am super excited to get this mouse blanket uploaded.
The pattern is a available on my Etsy shop:
As well as being perfect for practicing your Kangaroo bouncing, this crochet Kangaroo tail blanket has a very handy pouch. Perfect for keeping your treasures in while wearing it.

Ive been working on a few more crochet hooded blanket patterns over the last few months and there are bits of different animals and birds gathering up in my craft basket and starting to overflow all over the place!. In an attempt to reduce the crammed conditions in the craft basket I have managed to get a few put together, the first is a very cute puffin.
The pattern is available over on my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/526825227/hooded-puffin-blanket-crochet-pattern
Following on from my dinosaur and dragon tail blankets is a crocodile tail blanket. I love making these tail blankets so it wont be too long until a few more patterns start to come together!
