This is a written pattern with photos and graphs. The main graph is a colour block graph I detail how my block graphs work on my webpage (click here for how to use a colour block graph).

The pattern is worked in the round, closing each round before continuing on.

The cats for attaching to the handles are made separately and attached with a length of yarn and a tapestry needle. A symbol graph is included for these, in addition to the written instructions.

Crochet terminology: Both US and UK.
