Squid Cat Toy Crochet Pattern
I love to play with my cat Maze! Like most cats, she is very finicky when it comes to things she likes to play with. So I am always thinking of new ideas that entertain her as much as me.
This Squid Cat Toy Crochet Pattern is the cutest thing I designed recently and my Maze LOVES it! I hope you get many enjoyable hours playing with your pets with this make!
