Friends, today I will share a beginner and very instructive hello kitty amigurumi pattern. Two different basic colors were preferred in the making of the crocheted cat toy, which was designed using plush yarn. While pink color is used on the toy’s dress and buckle, we see that white color is used extensively in other parts. Making the cat’s whiskers with the help of black thread seems to be a very easy process. Although a simple nose has been made using yellow thread, you can diversify this process further if you wish.
Actually, I wanted to share more images about the toy, but if you wish, you can access these images by examining the designer’s profile. Now if you are ready, let’s get started.
