It's a hit!
Yes, this is "grass." It's the wrong colour but it's a Mochimochi pattern. It should have eyes, but meh. I actually tried to felt the two halves before sewing them together, but obviously this is a non-felting yarn. Too bad I didn't think of that before using it for this pattern.
Anyway, I added some loose catnip while stuffing it, and Tubbs went right for it. Actually, first I had to lock myself in the office since of course they both smelled the catnip. However, when the toy was finished, Buddy was too busy hiding from imaginary enemies under the bed, so only Tubbs gave it a test-run.
And it's a hit! Of course it's the catnip that's the "hit," but hey, I just made a cat toy! *Pats self on back* An online friend in Maine is kindly sending me some green felting yarn, so my next grass will actually look like grass. I may even add the eyes.
