In this picture
A striped kitten peers over the edge of an open paper bag with both front paws hooked over the rim. Its upright tail rises on the right. A spool of ribbon sits outside the bag, with a long loose ribbon curling across the foreground. Fold lines divide the bag into angular front and side panels.

Is this the page for you?
- medium difficulty
- Ribbon edges, spool rims and bag creases need finer strokes than the kitten head.
- Skills to try
- Following a twisting strip: The loose ribbon turns around the spool and bends across the lower page.
- Suggested age: About 7–10 years
- The narrow ribbon and small paw divisions ask for deliberate edge control. This is a suggestion; comfort with the shapes matters more than age.
