Cat (Feline Friend) Design Tutorial

Cat (Feline Friend) Design Tutorial

1. Pick 3 different colors. (The example uses red, black & white). You will need 1 strand of red, 3 strands of black & 4 strands of white.

2. Align string, fold in half, and tie knot ½ inch from fold forming a loop.

3. Attach your ½ inch loop to MYFBM under the butterfly clip.

4. This pattern uses 14 strings which is exceeds the amount of slots that the MYFBM holds. You will need to have two loose strings on each end. The strings hanging loose on the left hand side will be referred to as #-1 & #0. The two loose strings on the right will be referred to as #11 & #12. Separate strings by placing one string per slot. Note: Use the same color in slots -1, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 & 12 (white), slot 2 (red) & slots 0, 4, 6, 8 & 10 (black). There will be one extra red string & an extra black string that will need to be cut close to your knot.
