Crochet amigurumi Glutton Cat pattern

Before you start crocheting, be sure to look up and read about the specifics of crocheting with ALIZE Softy yarn.

The stitches are hard to see, so you will have to crochet by touch, but you can feel the stitches. Just do not crochet too tightly. The hook will slide into the stitch on its own.

The yarn tears easily by hand, so tighten all knots very carefully.

At the beginning of the work, use stitch markers. Later, once the stripes begin, you can manage without them. Be sure to count the number of stitches in every round.

If the number of stitches in a round does not match what it should be (plus or minus 1 or 2), it is okay. Adjust it in the next round or at the end of the same round. The advantage of this yarn is that little mistakes like that are not noticeable.

Round 5: (inc, 3 sc) x 6 = 30 sc

Next, crochet colored stripes. Always change to the new color on the last stitch of the previous round (pick up the last stitch with the yarn you were working with, then complete it with the new color).

Round 6 (white): (3 sc, inc, 1 sc) x 6 = 36 sc

Finish stuffing. Cut the yarn, thread the tail through all stitches, and pull the opening closed. Secure the yarn tail and hide it inside the body.

Make a sl st, cut the yarn, leaving a tail for sewing, and fasten off. Sew on the muzzle, stretching it slightly out to the sides from the middle of the initial gray spot and downward. Do not sew it closed completely; when a small opening remains, stuff it, then finish sewing it on.

Paws (make 4)

Gray. Use regular, non-fluffy yarn.

Round 1: 6 sc in MR
Round 2: (2 inc, 1 sc) x 2 = 10 sc

Stuff the paws and sew them to the sides so the cat is almost lying on its belly.

Ears (make 2)

Gray. Use regular, non-fluffy yarn.

Round 1: 3 sc in MR, do not close the ring, make 1 ch, turn the work
Round 2: inc, inc 3-in-1, inc (work the second stitch of the increase as a sl st), cut the yarn, leaving a tail for sewing, and fasten off.

Sew the ears on about 7 rounds from the beginning of the work. In this sample, that is after the white stripe, with 5-6 stitches between the ears.

• Embroider the nose
• Sew the bead eyes directly above the white muzzle, wherever you like
• Stuff the tail and sew it onto the upper part of the rump
