I made a ton of fleece blankets with crocheted edges as my "portable projects" at the hockey rink, but then I ran across a pattern for a kitty den. I liked the idea, but I wasn't sure if my cats were actually going to take to it, so I didn't want to buy the expensive super jumbo bulky yarn used. (Also, I didn't really like the available colors.) Instead, I used four strands of worsted weight yarn held together. Figured that if they didn't like the final product, it was completely washable and so could be donated to the shelter.
Well.....I wasn't able to weave in the yarn ends for quite some time, because they fell in love.....
And then there was jealousy....

So now there are two kitty yurts in my house....plus I'm apparently in business to make them on commission! FYI - in case you also need kitty yurts - I bought four 6 oz skeins of the grey and two each of claret and charcoal (held those together for a more "tweed" look), and that got me almost 3 total yurts. (I had to buy more grey to finish the second "grey body" yurt.
