Dubbed “Peanut” by my brother due to its resemblance to a packing peanut, this pint-sized kitty is hard to resist! An adorable pink nose and whiskers add to the fun.

Supplies

Yarn in Light Orange, Dark Orange, White, and Pink
US F/4 crochet hook (3.75mm)
Stitch marker
Stuffing
Two 8mm safety eyes
Tapestry needle

Difficulty: Easy/Intermediate

All basic stitches (sc, dec, ch, etc.). No color changes necessary. Lots of embroidery and some sewing.

Size

About 3 ¼ inches tall
(I crochet quite tightly, so you may need a smaller hook if your stitches tend to be looser to make sure the stuffing doesn’t show.)

Variation Ideas

Cats come in all sorts of colors and patterns! Could you change the colors to make a calico, or a Siamese?
