Knitted cat blanket

I made my sister's cat another blanket for Christmas ... basically it's a big dishcloth.

I used Caron Chunky Cakes Yarn (Rainbow Jellies). It's a 6 ply yarn and I used 8mm needles.

Cast on 65 stitches (or an odd number of stitches).

Row 1 to 5: k1, p1, repeat until you reach the last stitch, k1.

Row 6: k1, p1, k1, p1, k1, purl until you reach last five stitches, k1, p1, k1, p1, k1.

Row 7: k1, p1, k1, p1, k1, knit until you reach last five stitches, k1, p1, k1, p1, k1.

Repeat rows 6 and 7 until desired length less five rows.

Last five rows:  k1, p1, repeat until you reach the last stitch, k1.

Bind off all stitches in knit. Weave in loose ends.
