A mini green Lucky Tiny Kitty. This is one of the simplest patterns I’ve every written, and it’s not rocket science, but I thought I’d share it with you all anyway. Plus it’s a great stash buster.
A mini green Lucky Tiny Kitty. This is one of the simplest patterns I’ve every written, and it’s not rocket science, but I thought I’d share it with you all anyway. Plus it’s a great stash buster.
The Essentials: Hook: 2mm (makes the size shown, but I’m sure any hook size would work and scale up or down accordingly). Wool: DK in green, scrap of DK red. Finished Size: 3cm long. Also needed: Small amount of green felt Terms: CH = Chain SC = Single Crochet INC = Increase DEC = Decrease I start my amigurumi using CH2 for simplicity, but if you prefer you can use a magic ring.
Head and body (all in one) Round 1: 6sc into magic ring/ second chain from hook [6] Round 2: INC around [12] Round 3:{1sc, INC} around [18] Round 4:{2sc, INC} around [24]~ Round 5-6: SC around [24] Round 7: {2sc, DEC} around [18] Round 8: {1sc, DEC} around [12] Round 9: DEC around [6] Round 10: INC around [12] Round 11:{1sc, INC} around [18] Round 12: SC around [18] Round 13: {1sc, DEC} around [12] Round 14: DEC around [6] Finish off leaving a long tail. Thread the tail through the body to the back and cut to desired tail length. The above crocheted from bum to nose by the way. You’ll end up with the photo. Add your face using black embroidery thread.
Grab your felt and cut two triangles for ears, and four ovals for feet. Stick the ovals straight on using your glue gun or some all purpose glue.
Fold your triangles in half and glue them in place too. See the collar as well? That’s just a scrap of red wool glued in place. Or you could tie a bow round his neck if you’ve got a longer scrap or some nice thin ribbon..
And you’re done! Here’s my Lucky Tiny Kitty in his new suitcase home, since he's designed as a house warming gift with included pewter cast keyring and kitty ID tag.
