Crochet cat. Patterns and description of amigurumi from plush yarn, mohair, angora. Photo

Recently, they have become widespread knitted toys, which attract with their originality and cute appearance. They are knitted from various yarns using a crochet hook (less often knitting needles). A crocheted cat looks very aesthetically pleasing and elegant against the background of the interior.

The diagram and description of step-by-step actions for knitting toys are given in many master classes dedicated to the unique Japanese art of amigurumi.

Yarn, hooks for knitting cats

To knit an amigurumi cat, you can use absolutely any yarn that is used for knitting clothes. Its choice depends on the design of the future toy, its size and purpose.

If the toy is created for decorative purposes to decorate the interior of the room, you can use wool yarn, which will make it as realistic as possible (the wool is combed and the toy looks like a real animal). Such a cat is not recommended for use as a children's toy, since its appearance may noticeably deteriorate.

If the cat is created for children's games, it is better to use acrylic or plush wool (possibly with the addition of cotton). In this case, the product will be very strong and dense, and the composition of the wool will allow it to remain in its original form for a long time.

A crochet cat, the pattern and description of which determines the choice of yarn and hook of the desired thickness, can be knitted in a few hours. The time it takes to create a toy depends on its size and type of yarn. For example, it is much more difficult to knit from plush yarn than from acrylic yarn, so more time will be spent on creating such a toy.

For medium-sized toys, yarn with a thickness of 2 to 3.5 mm is used. For small items - 1-1.5 mm. Widely used yarn brands are YarnArt JEANS (for medium-sized toys) and Vita cotton "IRIS" (for framed miniature toys).

The yarn packaging often indicates the hook size that should be used to work with it. To knit toys, you need to select a tool that is smaller (1-1.5 mm smaller) than the one indicated on the packaging. This is due to the fact that the manufacturer's indicators are calculated for knitting clothes, the fabric of which must be sufficiently flexible and elastic.

Toys require a denser knitting structure to eliminate the presence of holes in the fabric, through which the toy’s filling (synthetic padding) may begin to leak out over time.

For example, if the yarn package states that you need a 3.5 mm hook, you need to take a 2 mm tool. For knitting medium and large toys, use 1.5 - 2 mm hooks. For small amigurumi and decorative design of product parts, use smaller tools of 0.8 - 1 mm.

To create a cat of a specific model, it is necessary to select yarn according to its design and knitting pattern, as well as select hooks of the appropriate sizes. Various toys often have additional elements (clothes, various accessories, etc.) for which yarn and a hook of a thinner diameter are selected.

To select the correct hook size for the yarn size, you can use the following table:

Yarn thickness	Number of turns in 2.5 cm	Number of meters in 100 g	Hook size, mm
Very thin	18	600+	0.8
Thin	16	380-550	1-1.5
Welterweight	14	240-370	1.5-2
Average	12	200-240	2-2.5
Semi-thick	10	170-200	2.5-3
Fat	8	110-160	3-3.5

Master class on knitting simple amigurumi. Scheme, step-by-step description

A crochet cat, the diagram and description of which is attached to each master class on its creation, knitted using well-known standard knitting elements:

• single crochet (SC);
• single crochet increase (SCI);
• Decrease single crochet (decrease).
• amigurumi ring (KA);
• air loop (AL);

The amigurumi ring is the basis of almost all the details of the toy. Usually, knitting the head or body begins with this element. It is a ring of yarn around which single crochets are knitted.

To create an amigurumi ring you will need:

1. Form a circle of yarn around the 2nd finger, press it with the 1st finger. Hold the long part of the thread (the working thread) between the 3rd and 4th fingers.
2. Insert the hook under the ring, grab the yarn and pull it back (this will create a slip knot).
3. Again, grab the yarn with the hook and pull it back (this will create a chain stitch).
4. Remove the ring from the index finger and, while knitting, hold the resulting ring with the first and second fingers.
5. Tie the required number of STBN stitches around the ring.
6. Tighten the ring tightly by pulling on the short part of the thread.
7. Insert the hook into the loop of the very first SC, grab the yarn and pull it back (you will get a slip stitch, which completes the creation of the amigurumi ring).

Single crochet stitches (SC) are knitted as follows:

1. Insert the hook into the amigurumi ring (if you are knitting the first row) or into the nearest loop of the previous row (if you are knitting the second and subsequent rows).
2. Grab the yarn and pull it back (this will leave two loops on the hook).
3. Again, grab the working yarn and pull it back through the two loops on the hook (this will result in a SC, and one new loop will remain on the hook).
4. The following STBN are knitted sequentially, each time inserting the hook into the ring (if the first row is knitted) or into the nearest loop of the previous row (if the second and subsequent rows are knitted).

Single crochet increase (SCI) is 2 regular SCs crocheted into the same stitch of the previous row (as a result, the number of stitches in the new row increases).

The increase is knitted as follows:

1. Knit 1 SC into the nearest loop of the previous row.
2. Knit another 1 SC into the same loop.

A single crochet decrease (SCD) is 1 SC, knitted into 2 loops of the previous row (as a result, the number of loops in the new row decreases).

The decrease is knitted as follows:

1. The hook is inserted into the nearest loop of the previous row. Then the working thread is grabbed and pulled back.
2. The hook is inserted into the next closest loop. Then the working thread is grabbed and also pulled back (as a result, 3 loops will be put on the hook).
3. The hook grabs the working yarn and pulls it back through the 3 loops on the hook.

It is recommended to start knitting toys with simple and small models. In order to knit a simple cat, no more than 10 cm in height, you will need white yarn (it is recommended to use YarnArt JEANS, 3 mm), hook No. 2, synthetic padding (as a filler), two black beads for eyes and a thread with a needle.

The crochet cat, the diagram and description of which are given further in the article, is knitted in parts. Then all the parts are sewn together, and the body is filled with padding polyester.

The ears are knitted according to the following pattern:

1. Make KA (2 STBN).
2. Make 1 VP.
3. Rotate the product around its axis by 360º (while the hook with the loop on it remains stationary).
4. Make 2 STBN.
5. Tighten the ring.

The body is knitted as follows:

1. Make KA (6 SC) and tighten the ring.
2. Row 2 (6 Inc).
3. Row 3 (1 PR, 1 SC) - 6 times.
4. Row 4 (1 PR, 2 SC) - 6 times.
5. from 5 to 13 rows (24 STBN).
6. Count the 6th row from the top and embroider a nose in the form of a dot (2 mm in diameter) with black thread.
7. 1 row below, embroider a bird-shaped mouth with black thread (1 cm wide).
8. Sew eyes to the right and left of the nose (you can use black beads with a diameter of 3 mm).
9. Below the eyes, embroider 2 antennae on each side.
10. Count the 3rd row from the top and sew the ears into this area (at eye level).
11. Row 14 (1 dec, 1 sc) — 8 times.
12. Fill the body with synthetic padding.
13. Row 15 (8 DECREASE).
14. Thread the thread through each loop of the last row and pull tightly.
15. Secure the thread with a knot and hide it inside.

The tail is knitted according to the following pattern:

1. Make KA (6 SC) and tighten the ring.
2. 2nd row (1 INC, 2 SC) - 2 times.
3. 3-4 rows (8 STBN).
4. Row 5 (1 dec, 2 sc) - 2 times.
5. 6-7 rows (6 STBN).

Next, you need to count the 3rd row from the center, from the bottom of the body, and sew on the tail.

The paws are knitted according to the following pattern:

1. Make 3 VP.
2. Knit 2 SC in a chain.
3. Pull the thread tight.

Next, you need to count the 3rd row from the center of the bottom of the body, and sew the lower legs at the level of the ears.

The upper legs are sewn on 3 rows higher than the lower legs.

Next, you need to take a pink marker and color the inside of the ears, and also give the cat a blush in the whisker area.

Phone case

It won't be difficult to crochet an unusual accessory for your phone in the form of a cat. You can use thin acrylic yarn to create this item.

Case diagram:

1. Tie a chain of VP so that its length matches the width of your phone.
2. Knit 3 rows of STBN along this chain (this will form the base of the case).
3. Knit STBN around the base circle until the length of the case is equal to the length of your phone.
4. Crochet the ears using double crochet stitches.

Then you can glue or sew on plastic eyes and embroider a mouth. If desired, you can embroider an inscription, hearts or flowers.

A crocheted cat can be sold at an exhibition or special fairs. Also, if you create your own model of a toy, its diagram and description can also be successfully sold as a master class on its production.
