Tatters the Cat Poppet | Family Knitting Kit

Knit a little magic... one stitch, one spell, one wish at a time. ✨Tatters the Cat Meet Tatters, the first peculiar little inhabitant of the Curiosity Cabinet. Tatters is a small, rustic cat poppet made to hold an intention in the form of a written wish, prayer, spell, hope, or enchantment. The project begins with a basic knit rectangle. Before the final stitches are worked, you’ll write your enchantment on a tiny parchment scroll, roll it tightly, and encircle it with a golden ring. The scroll is placed inside an herbal sachet containing herbs traditionally associated with love and luck, then tucked inside your poppet along with wool stuffing. You'll use the included embroidery floss and assorted embellishments to add eyes, markings, symbols, whiskers - whatever curious details bring Tatters to life. Whether you approach the project as a spell, a prayer, a creative ritual, or simply a fun bit of handwork, Tatters keeps your intention safely tucked among the stitches. ✨ What’s Included This kit contains the materials needed to make four Tatters the Cat poppets: Non-superwash bulky wool yarn for four poppets Pick your yarn colors in the dropdown boxes. You will receive two of each chosen color. Beautiful wool roving for stuffing four poppets Teardrop pendant with embroidery floss, crewel thread, and tapestry wool for embellishing four poppets Four handcrafted herbal sachets filled with an enchanting blend of lavender, rosemary, calendula, rose, and mint.
