Grumpy Cat

sad cat look

This pattern uses a 51 × 50 bead grid with 1,038 beads and 7 listed colors. It is marked as Medium difficulty.

How-To: Start with the dark outlines of the face and ears, then fill in the big dark eye patches before completing the white and cream fur sections.
Use Case: Makes a cute desk ornament or a small wall decoration for cat lovers.

Do I need a special pegboard for this shape?

A standard large square pegboard will work fine as the design fits within a typical grid layout.

How do I handle the delicate details like the eyes?

Use tweezers to carefully place the single blue and white beads that create the expressive eye highlights.
