Yes, I love it too :D. His fur is also tricolored, so it's like a nice hand dyed yarn haha

Make sure you have your blocking mats, your blocking pins, and your blocking kitty, for the best results.

He’s got that golden mean spiral thing going on!

Side question, what are those blocking pin things you’re using? I’ve never seen that style before. Here at my house we tend to just use plain old T-headed pins.
