✨ PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING! ✨
 
This is a CAL (Crochet Along) which will be released in 5 parts during September and October. What you are buying now is not the finished pattern, but the presale of the Halloween CAL by AdO Crochet! 🎃🧶
 
Each Thursday a brand-new part will be added to your Ravelry library, or emailed to you if you purchased via Etsy or AdO Crochet (files on those sites will be zipped).
 
So please keep in mind: this is an announcement only – the 5 instalments will arrive week by week. If you would prefer to wait for the full pattern, that will be published in October once the CAL has finished.
 
💜 I’m over the moon to announce my Halloween CAL 2025:
Halloween Cats – the MacCats! 🐾✨
 
Only during the presale 25% discount in all my shops with code MACCATS (till Thursday 11 September)
 
As many of you know, I love to draw, and this design has been an absolute joy. I imagined three cats – one old and grumpy, one wickedly laughing, and one shy and timid – much like the witches in Macbeth. When I told my husband, he instantly began to chant “Double, double, toil and trouble…” (he had quite a classic upbringing 😉). That chant simply had to find its way into the cauldron!
And so, the MacCats were born. Spooky but not too scary – just the right touch of Halloween magic. 🐱🧙‍♀️✨
