Book excerpt: It's hard to imagine a more delightful subject for needlework than the ever-popular feline. In fact, cat-fancying needleworkers have long known that cat and kitten motifs are a perfect way to enliven pillows, wall hangings, afghans, rugs, virtually every kind of needlework project. For this affordable collection of 31 original charted designs, noted British needlework expert Julie Hasler has created a lovely menagerie of cats and kittens charmingly captured in a wide variety of scenes and activities. Playful kittens, sleepy tabbies, hardy tomcats, a pair of exotic Siamese, plus many others are here with all kinds of decorative backgrounds and borders: rainbows, a window frame, a sunset, a hearth, even a desert island scene. Although intended for counted cross-stitch or needle-point, designs can be easily adapted to many different forms of needlework: knitting, crochet, latch-hooking, etc. Thoroughly detailed instructions guide the beginner and explain exactly how to translate the charts for other needlework techniques. To make it even easier, each of the 31 black-and-white charts has a color key telling exactly how to color the design. Needleworkers at all levels will use these inexpensive charted designs again and again to make feline decorations they'll treasure for years to come.
