ABOUT THE PATTERN

The pattern starts at the top of the head and works down, incorporating the paws using bobble stitch and the optional belly using colour changes. The ears are crocheted directly onto the body, and the tail can either be crocheted into the body or sewn on separately. A little simple embroidery is required for the stripes, mouth, whiskers and nose. I’ve provided options for either safety eyes or embroidered eyes. Using DK yarn and a 2.5mm hook, Eggy Kitten reaches a height of approximately 6.5cm.

SKILL LEVEL

I have assigned an advanced beginner skill level to this pattern. While the majority of it involves simple stitches, there are a few colour changes to create the belly, crocheting the tail can be a little fiddly and surface crocheting is required for the ears. There is also a little embroidery required. Some variations are simpler than others. You must be familiar with reading patterns and understanding the abbreviations and terminology.

MATERIALS NEEDED

Chosen yarn in desired colours. The following yarns in DK weight have been used in the pattern:

For the sitting-up kitten:

• Purple for body
• White for belly
• Small amount of yellow for embroidered stripes and stripes on tail

For the laying-down kitten:

• Orange for body
• Small amount of red for embroidered stripes and stripes on tail

You will also need the following embroidery thread or yarn for both kittens:

• Tiny amount of black for embroidering mouth and whiskers (and eyes if opting for embroidered eyes) - I used 3 strands of embroidery thread
• Tiny amount of pink for embroidering nose - I used sport weight / 5 ply yarn

8mm safety eyes if not opting for crocheted eyes
Toy stuffing
2.5mm crochet hook
Scissors
Pins
Stitch markers
Tapestry needle

Feel free to explore variations by swapping out yarn and hook sizes to achieve a different outcome, and get creative with experimenting with various colours.
