I know there happen to be many loaf cat patterns out there, but I decided to create my own to fit the exact parameters I wanted: smaller, no-sew, quick, easy, and customizable. And luckily, I created a kitten that fits all of it!
The little cat works up in around 30-45 minutes (possibly and hour if you are newer), it requires no sewing, uses very simple stitches, and can be customized to look like whatever cat you want! I started out with just plain colors, but I quickly wanted to advance to different types of cats. I tried my hand at striped/tabby, tuxedo, and colorpoint fur patterns, and I think they turned out so cute! Sadly haven't figured out how to do the tortoiseshell pattern of my own cat yet. However, I will try and include notes of where you could deviate to add your own personal flair to your kitty!
Hopefully you enjoy this pattern, and I pray that this little cat adds a tiny bit more joy to your life!
