Charlotte the Cat by NVKatherine

Hello dear firends,

Few weeks ago I have presented you pattern from one new designer NVKatherine who is also my dear Facebook friend. She introduced herself  with Pammy the Pig. NVKatherine is young and very creative designer!

Two weeks ago she came up with new design and we decided to make a post of that one as well. This time it is a cat, darling Charlotte the Cat. Once again, NVKatherine has come up with easy pattern everyone can follow and make, which is same time so cute and adorable.

I am sure you will give it a try and make this darling cat Charlotte for your little ones. Feel free contact me for any questions you might have, or any help you might need, as well as you can contact NVKatherine through contact addresses provided here and in .pdf pattern you are welcome to download.

Talking Angela Free Amigurumi Pattern

 

First heard of Angela the cat when my friend told me how it is adored by her daughter Sara, and asked me to make that cat as amigurumi doll for her.

For all of you that don’t know who is that Angela, here is a picture of this adorably cute cat.angela_bg_8bit

Took me a few days, maybe more…almost  a month to research about this Angela cat and to figure out how to do that doll.

Encouraged myself this week to finally make it, and here it is what I came up with. My version of Angela the cat.

DSC01053

Even have the pattern done and ready if you would like to try making one. Have to say, that it is working pattern so some mistakes might be found. I did check it in written, but didn’t make time to make second and third Angela cat to be absolutely sure about this pattern. So keep that in mind if you decide making Angela.

For any details or further instructions please, feel free to ask. I do apologize for any mistakes or misunderstandings caused by my english, but am here to clear those as well 🙂

So here is the pattern! Hope you will enjoy making Angela!

Outline the iris of the eye with two threads of blue embroidery yarn.
