Cat, New patterns
Free pattern of the small cats
May
I have published a new FREE pattern. It`s a small cat with joined legs. Actually the toy was created for the workshop held in April, but as many people liked the design I decided to share it with you.
It is a great model for those who already have made some simple amigurumis, but want to learn new things. This small cat teaches you how to make an animal with joined legs.
I made it in two versions – as a boy with a striped blouse and as a girl with a ruffled skirt. I think it`s great for the beginners to see how you can really easily change the basic pattern and add elements that change the outlook.
Before writing this post I also tried real cat eyes with slit pupil. I used 10 mm safety eyes, added some beads and somewhat changed the nose. And the result is absolutely refreshing!
I hope you enjoy the pattern!

Hello! PLEASE point me to the link of where you purchased the cute little bumblebee bow on the female kitty? I have made two of your kitties, but cannot locate that exact bumblebee charm anywhere in stores or online :( Please help me!
I have never made a bumblebee bow…
the pattern link is broken. It directs to a 404 page
Thanks for the info. It should be fixed now.
I’m really having fun doing this beautiful kitty. I do have a question: on the head you end with a round of 18 sc. so I do not close off the head, just leave it open and sew to body like that? I’m just a bit confused. New to amigorumi crochet and every single creature I’ve made, you finish off the head, like a complete ball/ oval.
Glad to hear this! Yes, you have got it right. On this post you can see how I´m sewing the head and body together, plus you`ll get a little tip on this theme.
Hi! Thank u so much for this pattern. I loved! I’m having a little bit of trouble to make the skirt. In round 15 when I’m supposed to sc in back loops only, do I have to use the yellow yarn or I still using grey yarn? And after that, do I continue to crochet the body until the end before finish the skirt? Thank you!!
The back loops only round is worked with the body color. You finish the body and only then add the skirt using the front loops that were previously left out of the work.
Your pattern is not clear to me. I’m stuck on round 3 of the head. If I’m understanding correctly, you do step 3 six times? Or do you do round 3 and then repeat it 6 MORE times (making it 7 times total). And also, I did round 3 twice, but the second time I got a lot more than 18 stitches. How do you get 18 stitches every time?
It`s like math! You repeat the text between the brackets as many times as said (usually 6).
Let`s say the pattern says (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times [18]. The text between the brackets gives you 3 stitches, and now if you repeat it 6 times you`ll get 18 stitches in total.
How do I attach the head to the body? The pattern doesn’t say to tie off the head or tie off the body, do I crochet the two together? I’m just confused.
Hi! You fasten off the head as well as the body, and sew them together afterwards.

Thank you! I have contacted the page owner to clarify this.
Hi there, I have just started thes cats, which I think are the nicest ami cats on the web! I’ve completed my head, but I am struggling so much to get the ears to look anything like the ones in your pictures. Can anyone help please? I am a beginner to crochet and there is probably something really obvious that I am missing :-(
Any advice/tips most welcome!
Thanks

Hi! Thank you for the kind words.
I would need you to specify what exactly doesn`t work. Please contact me at lilleliis@gmail.com. Perhaps you can also add a photo so I could better understand what might be wrong.

I believe you just fold flat and then they look same as picture – it took me a bit to get right too lol
I want to thank you for the pattern but when I go to get it it says oops nothing found on that page. Can you please help. Thank you.
OMG! The link must be broken. I´ll check this. Meantime, you`ll find the pattern here.
I love these cats!!!! almost finished with my first one and want to add the skirt, but I’m not sure what stitches are the ones that were left out to begin the skirt…the pattern reads “Crochet into the first loops on the body that were previously left out of the work.”??? Thank you so much for sharing this free pattern :-)
Thanks!
Please read the note in the yellow box. For making the skirt you need to crochet in the back loops only on round 15 on the body. Afterwards you can use the front loops of round 15 to add the skirt.
Thank you for making it so simple:) I totally forgot about that yellow box…it makes complete sense now:) Again thank you for sharing the free pattern and I will be purchasing more patterns, I love your designs and the extra little details you give each little critter.
Adorable and cutest patterns! Please can you twitte a link of some of your adorable patterns to @wryt4kids (our twitter account) for our lovely audience to visit your website? In fact, we’re recommending you today.
Hello! This pattern is so cute! It looks like the links to the patterns are broken. Can you fix them? I am in the middle of creating a cat for my friend’s daughter but can’t finish without instructions. Thank you so much!

Actually, It appears to work now. I think it is just the quick link button at the top for English that doesn’t work – it shows a 404 error page. Again, wonderful pattern and thank you so much!
Hi Mari-Liis!
I really love the cat pattern! thank you so much! I am very confused on how to go about the skirt of the cat though. Is there anyway you could post a video on it or provide more information on it? Thank you!
I´m glad you like the pattern!
When starting to crochet the skirt you need to hold the cat upside down.
