Here Kitty, Kitty!


We love kitties at our house, so I went looking on the internet for a simple and sweet (and free!) kitty pattern.  This one, by Drawn and Hooked, hooked me immediately!

To scale to tiny dolls, 4 to 6 inches tall, I used fingering weight yarn and a size 2 steel hook.  With this yarn and hook the kitties are 2 1/4 inches long.  Her pattern is called Neko Atsume, and it will take you less than two hours to make one. 


Clearly it was impossible to stop at just one kitty!

Mini's

Tiny little dolls continue to tumble off my hook :-)  Mini Hitty Pattern  and  Crochet Hitty Pattern

This one for my sister for her birthday.  The outfit is from Crochet Crafts by Helga; I love the headscarf, and the crochet popcorn roses on her dress.  I found the perfect little gift box at Michaels, and a bar of goat milk soap for sweetness sake.

I also created some free patterns you can make for your mini Hitty; bloomers, panties, a camisole dress, and two hats (the blue dress bottom right is another pattern by Helga).

Hope your May Day's are lovely ones :-)
