And the pattern can be adjusted to make larger sized bones if you have a large dog.

Cozy Crocheted Cat Hive
When I first saw this clever cat bed with this cat peeking its head out, it reminded me somewhate of a Bee Hive, so that’s why I’m calling it a Cat Hive. The website it’s on appears to be in Finnish, but fortunately the site owner been kind enough to provide us with instructions in an English Translation, which you’ll find if you scroll all the way to the bottom of the post. It seems the concept of cozy translates across almost any language!
