Made It Into Ravelry's Top 5!

​​I was so excited yesterday as I watched my Cosmic Cozy pattern work its way up the top 20 list on Ravelry's Hot Right Now section in the Patterns tab.  I was hoping to make it into the Top 5 and I did
!

I wondered why this pattern became popular so suddenly and I saw the front page of Ravelry.  In the Community Eye Candy 
ChristalLittleK's  "Nid pour ratous" is featured and what an adorable little rattie peaking out!  

This cozy was also featured in an article in Issue 92 (May 2015) of Let’s Knit magazine about knitting for pets (and if you know me you know how much I LOVE animals).  The base is crocheted and then you pick up stitches along the sides and decrease quickly to create the shape of the roof which is knit quite densely to hold its shape.  Wool yarn is a great choice for this cozy because it has a natural absorbency which will eliminate the smell of urine, wick away moisture and if you use a superwash wool it is easily washable.  
The pictures were taken by my sister Nancy and the rats (Isabelle & Grace) in my project pictures belong to a sweet girl named Bryn.

I had been watching my way through The X-Files while making this and its design reminded me of a UFO which was also the inspiration for its name.  If you have a small animal why not consider making a Cosmic Cozy for them to snuggle up in.  You can find the pattern for FREE in my Patterns section and also on
Ravelry.
