Amigurumi Cat Pattern – 5 Essential Tips

Amigurumi Cat Recipe Step by Step

Now that you have gathered all the necessary materials, it is time to start crocheting your cat amigurumi.

Let's follow a simple and detailed step-by-step guide to make the process easier, even for beginners.

1. Head and Body

Start with the head, which is usually made in a spherical shape:

1. Make a magic ring with 6 single crochet stitches (sc).
2. Increase to 12 sc on the second row, making 2 sc in each stitch from the previous row.
3. Continue increasing proportionally until you reach the desired head size.
4. After the increase, make rows without increases to form the rounded part.
5. Gradually reduce the stitches to close the sphere, but leave an opening for filling with silicone fiber.
6. Repeat the same process for the body, adjusting the size so that it is proportional to the head.

2. Ears

The ears are made separately:

1. Start with a magic ring of 6 sc.
2. Gradually increase until it forms a small triangle.
3. Finish and leave a piece of thread to sew the ears onto the head.

3. Paws and Tail

For the paws:

1. Make a magic ring with 6 sc and increase until you reach the desired diameter.
2. Work rows without increases to form the length of the legs.
3. Repeat the process for all 4 legs.

For the tail:

1. Start with a magic ring of 6 sc.
2. Work rows without increases until you reach the desired length.

4. Assembly

With all the parts ready, it's time to assemble your amigurumi:

1. Fill all parts with silicone fiber.
2. Sew the ears onto the head carefully to make them symmetrical.
3. Attach the head to the body, aligning the parts well.
4. Sew the paws and tail to the body, adjusting the position so the cat is balanced.
5. Finally, apply the safety eyes and embroider the snout with black thread, if desired.

There you go! Your cat amigurumi is finished. Now all you have to do is admire your creation or give it as a gift to someone special!
