Cute crochet Christmas cat pattern
This pattern is designed as a Christmas bauble but can be used as an ornament also. The hat is removable so can still be used once the holiday season is over! All you need is approx 60 minutes and a few materials.

This Pattern is completely free on my website! If you prefer a more detailed and printable PDF version, you can purchase this on Etsy.

This kitty is 10cm wide x 7cm long with a 2.5mm hook and 4 ply cotton yarn. You can make this item larger or smaller by changing the hook size and yarn width. Although the pattern uses the colours white, orange and red, you can use any colour scheme you like. If you are not confident with changing yarn, you can choose one colour to use for the entire project.

This pattern is beginner friendly and written in US crochet terms. The only sewing used is for the facial features, the cat itself requires no sewing.

Gauge: 23 stitches by 25 rows = 4 inches (10cm)
