Hi TigerLover! ~ Glad to hear someone can teach you because once you get the hang of the basic knitting stitch you can make Snuggles!! No need to know fancy stitches; in fact, I can't quite remember how to purl so I just cast on about 60 or 65 stitches and straight knit from there until I think it is big enough (at least 14" square) for a cat . . . so easy and very relaxing since I don't have to keep counting rows and checking to make sure I'm following any specific pattern. Some of the "Snugglers" use double strand yarn to make them thick, but I found some Lion Brand angora-look yarn at Michael's Craft Store that works up nice and fluffy and it is inexpensive; sometimes it goes on sale for 99 cents a skein and it only takes a skein and a half to make one Snuggle. I want to say the needles recommended are a long size 9, but check out the website to be sure and Happy Snuggling!
