Furry Friends Rug Free Crochet Pattern
I designed the Furry Friends Rug especially for my cat Maze who just loves to curl up on my crochet designs!
The Furry Friends Rug Free Crochet Pattern uses two strands of yarn to create a nice thick rug to keep your furry friend comfortable.
The pattern can be customized to fit the size of your furry friends.
