This black cat sitting on his window ledge seems supremely indifferent to the fleet of UFO's and their tractor beams. As long as he gets fed on time, he isn't going to waste time worrying about some aliens in the back yard. Who knows. Maybe he'll even take a joy ride with them later on. Avid stitchers and cat-lovers who also find monsters and cryptids downright irresistible are going to adore the "What the Cat Saw..." series of cross stitch patterns.
The design measures 87 stitches square. The pattern is printed in leaflet form on cardstock. The front has a color photo of the finished design. The actual pattern is charted using colored squares as well as symbols for clarity. Stitch count and DMC symbol and color information are included.
