Crochet Angel Cat assembly
The eyes are stitched in place first, approximately 1 – 2 stitches apart and 5 rows down from the top. *You can also use safety eyes, but make sure to attach them before you stitch the final row! Stitch the ear details and nose in pink. Add cute little whiskers in a softly contrasting color. Stitch the tail and wings in place.
Bend the wire into a halo shape. Cover with a thin layer of glue and tightly wrap some yellow yarn around the wire halo, covering it completely. Allow to dry before adding to your angel kitty.
Add a loop of yarn at the top of the kitty to turn it into a hanging decoration!
