I love sharing amigurumi toys for all skill levels, and today, I’m excited to offer a simple kitty amigurumi pattern. This adorable crochet cat is made using velvet yarn, which gives it a soft and plush appearance. The toy is small in size, making it a perfect little companion. It’s essential to use velvet yarn, as using other yarns may result in a much smaller amigurumi toy. Ready to create this cute kitty? Download the PDF pattern now and get started!
Little Kitty Martha Amigurumi Pattern
While I typically prefer more dynamic amigurumi designs, this sitting cat has a unique charm. Unlike other sitting toys that lack arms and legs, this crochet kitty features slightly highlighted limbs, adding to its cuteness and appeal.
