Customer Reviews for ANNIE'S SIGNATURE DESIGNS: Cat Igloo Crochet Pattern

I've done this twice now; on my third one. The first one I did add a few extra rows to the sides as my cat is bigger and I wanted him to have it for Christmas. However, it's not really tall enough. To keep the sides up, I purchased 1" poly-foam and cut it to size. Even with a top and bottom piece of foam. Then I sewed a strip on each side to hold the foam in and keep it right. After that, using two pieces of yarn together, I made another bottom that fit right on the foam and can be washed whenever. It looks cute. Then I decided to make the next one like the shaggy dog. I made it higher, but I should have made the bottom a bit wider. Make it at least 18" around. I also sewed strips of crocheted yarn on the sides and top to keep it from shifting, then I made another strip with loops of yarn pulled through it to look like a shaggy dog. Put buttons on the one strip to look like eyes. Then made "shaggy" ears. Everyone loves it and they want one!
