A cat is in an overcoat
Introducing our delightful finished cat toy, measuring approximately 12.6 inches (32 cm) from ears to toes, making it a perfect cuddly companion! This charming knitted cat pattern is designed for Advanced Beginner Knitters, as it is knitted in the round, providing a lovely challenge while enhancing your knitting skills.
The mobile head and hands allow for interactive play, bringing your creation to life and making it a fun project for both kids and adults. To craft this adorable feline friend, you will need several materials:
- 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for your chosen yarn weight. We recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn's specifications to achieve a firm, durable fabric. For this pattern, I utilized needles sized 2 (3mm) and 7 (4.5mm).
- Black and white yarn in NAKO Superlambs Special (50% wool, 50% premium acrylic) - you will need 100 g (200 m) for the cat.
- Blue yarn in NAKO Superlambs Special (50% wool, 50% premium acrylic) – again, 100 g (200 m) is required for the coat.
- Toy stuffing to ensure your cat has the perfect cuddly feel.
- Fishing line for sturdy moustaches that won't bend easily.
- Glass eyes for a lifelike appearance.
- A yarn needle for seamless finishing touches.
- A stitch holder to keep your stitches secure.
- Gray wool for crafting a charming felt nose that adds extra personality to your creation.
- 4 golden buttons to add a delightful decorative touch.
This pattern not only helps you create a stunning toy but also allows you to explore various knitting techniques while enjoying the cozy feel of wool and premium acrylic yarn.
