young cat (no sewing) - crochet pattern by NiggyArts

Product description

Doesn't this cat look alive? Its dynamically shaped body also gives it a realistic appearance.
The advantage of this pattern is that anyone with some crocheting experience should be able to get this realistic shape exactly like this, as no individual parts (except for ears and eyes) have to be sewn on and therefore no positioning errors can occur. For ears and eyes, the exact positions are also described in the pattern. For example, when crocheting the head, markings can be set according to the instructions, where later the individual parts can be easily attached to sew on.

Crochet makes you happy and this pattern should make you especially happy if you are crocheting your own very special cat that you can be particularly proud of.

With a little acrylic paint, the crocheted cat can be given a tabby pattern (description in the pattern).

So süß die kleine
Ich fand die Anleitung sehr gut umsetzbar und das Ergebnis ist echt süß. Nur das Stopfen hab ich auf später verschoben, ging auch gut.

Geht so
Bin absolut keine Anfängerin,hatte aber meine liebe Not mit dieser Katze. Ich habe nicht nach Anleitung mit Füllwatte gestopft,sondern immer so spät wie möglich. Das Endprodukt wurde wie beschrieben. Obwohl ich mir extra Katzenaugen gekauft hab, gefällt mir die Mimik nicht. Also, Anfänger, Finger weg

Sehr schön
Die Anleitung zum Häkeln ist sehr verständlich beschrieben. Ich selber tat mich allerdings schwer beim Zusammennähen und der Ausgestaltung. Trotzdem ist die Arbeit sehr schön geworden. Vielleicht häkle ich noch einen Rauhaardackel, meistens wird das Ergebnis besser. Ich selber habe für mich die Erfahrung gemacht,dass es meistens an mir liegt, wenn es nicht gleich klappt😁

Sehr gute Anleitung
Die Anleitung ist gut zu verstehen und umzusetzen. Da macht das Häkeln wirklich Spaß! Ich habe mein Erdmännchen aus Chenille Wolle gehäkelt. Lieben Dank an NiggyArts!

Super Anleitung,
die kleine Gans ist richtig toll geworden und wie ich finde auch sehr realistisch. Manchmal war es ein wenig fummelig, aber es war eine Freude zu sehen wie sich der Körper formte. Ich habe es auch mit ein wenig Geduld geschafft das sie von alleine steht. Wiedermal ein Tierchen zum lieb haben und für Gänse Fans ein Muss...Vielen Dank für die tolle Anleitung 💞

Tolle Anleitung,
das kleine Häschen ist super niedlich geworden und lässt sich gut nacharbeiten. Das einsetzen der Markierungsfäden war sehr hilfreich für die spätere Fertigstellung. Vielen Dank für die hübsche Idee😍

    Hallo,
    kann man die Katze auch mit Chenille Wolle häkeln oder wird sie dann zu instabil?

      Hallo, Chenille geht auch wenn es entsprechend fest gehäkelt und ausgestopft wird. LG
