One Piece Mouse

This Mouse is totally one piece and requires no sewing

So cute!! My kitties will love this little guy to play with! I love your patterns, thank you for sharing them with us!!!

I am pleased you like them!
I was thinking of making one a filling it with catnip for my cat. The fact it is one piece also makes it a bit safer for them to play with. Let me know if you make it and if your cats enjoy it!

What a cute rat! I love doing everything in one piece too :) When there are crochet patterns that need sewing, I kinda adapt them to be just crocheting really.

Thank you for your comments. I love one piece patterns. They are a bit harder to design but worth it as I hate lots of sewing
