Looking for an adorable and unique amigurumi to make for your little one? My newest pattern design, Cat the Floppy Friend, is a take on the traditional lovey for babies and little ones!
Cat the “Floppy Friend” is a sweet and low-sew kitten doll. The head, body, legs, and tail are completely no-sew; only the ears require sewing to the head.
This snuggler is a take on the traditional lovey for babies and little ones given its floppy, under-stuffed body. This makes it perfect for cuddling and snuggling up to!
About the Pattern
- Low-sew doll (sewing is only required for attaching the ears to the head)
- Fast and easy project
- Length: 12 inches
Recommended Yarn
This pattern was designed with super bulky weight chenille velvet yarn. I used Hobbii Honey Bunny yarn, and the end result is a very plush, squishy, and super soft amigurumi!
A super bulky weight blanket yarn can also be tried out for this pattern.
What I would NOT recommend is a thinner weight yarn, such as worsted weight or DK, in cotton, acrylic, or wool fibers. The reason for that is because this snuggler would come out stiffer and too small to really "snuggle" with!
Uses
- Plush toy for children to play with
- Security stuffy to comfort little ones
- Prop for photoshoots (this "Floppy Friend" is very posable and great for newborn photoshoots)
- Nursery room decor
- Selling at craft fairs, markets, or boutiques
- Birthday gift, baby shower gift, or Christmas holiday gift for babies, toddlers, and kids
- Christmas stocking stuffer
