Your kitty will look dashing in this scholarly v-neck vest featuring mock cable rib and a simple fish motif. The vest is worked in the round from the bottom-up to the armholes and then flat for the back and front, joined at the shoulders using the 3-needle bind-off. Not just for laughs, this vest is a low stress way to try knitting in the round, 2-color knitting, short-row shoulder shaping, and the sewn bind-off. This pattern is written for my 20lb cat, and may need to be adjusted for more average sizes.
Gauge is 18st/24rows = 4 inches on #8 needles
Yarn Requirements: 170yds / 155m MC, 60yds / 55m CC
Size: Big 'N Tall

20lb! blinkin' heck, mine are under 7! Love the vest though.
That is really cute. I can't see any of my three big boys wearing it though but they are about the right size.
This has got to be the first picture I've ever seen where the cat is wearing a garment and not looking homicidal. Very, very cute.
That's priceless! I just love it, esp. the cute little red fish. And your cat looks amazingly cheerful about wearing a sweater. :-)
OMG - little fishies and cables - he is stylin'!
That is adorable - Does he mind you putting it on? Will he keep it on?
Well its good to know the vest is so slimming, he doesn't look a pound over 12 :-)
I LOVE this, and I think I want to make this for myself.
Oh that is the cutest thing I've seen for a long time - haha!
Very well made, and your kitty is adorable. :)
A pretty sweater for a beautiful cat!
Hope you don't mind me showing one of the pics in my blog.
WHY! LOL
WHY!!!
That cat is absolutely beautiful and clearly mild mannered!
I love it! Google takes me to the greatest places. Lovely cat too! Thanks
I love this!!!! I've been looking for a knit pattern for my kitty and this is just what I was hoping for. I'll make mine in red and white for the holidays :)
Confused about the mock cable rib... are you missing a few steps?
You are missing several instructions for the mock cable rib and shoulder shaping. Any help with the shoulders would be appreciated.
