!!! The description shows how to knit a single-color cat, without knitting the spots and face.
When using these materials, you will get a toy measuring 26 cm to the top of the head and 29 cm including the ears.
Necessary materials:
1. Yarnart Dolce yarn: 1.5 – 2 skeins of main color (depending on the knitting density), a little pink (for the paws), black to highlight the eyes and eyebrows.
2. Holofiber filler (synthetic fluff).
3. Hook No. 4
4. Eyes on b/c 16 mm
5. Plastic nose on non-woven 10*12
6. Thread of a contrasting color or marker, scissors, needle with a large eye.

Add filler.
Hind legs (2 pieces)
We start with the main color (we do all inc from dc with a common vertex!)
1. Cast on 8 ch, from the second loop from the hook we knit: (inc from 3 dc, 1 sc)×3, inc from 3 dc + 2 sc into the same loop (turn out the pins), on the second side of the roses inc from dc, base inc, rose inc from dc, base inc, rose inc from dc, base inc, rose inc from dc + base 2 sc in the same loop.

We finish the last row with a connecting post, leaving thread for sewing.
We sew the paws on 10-13 rows, i.e. The foot occupies 4 rows in height, the distance between the feet is approximately 5 sc.
When sewing, add filler!

Pull the hole and hide the thread.
We insert eyes between 45 and 46 rows at a distance of 6 – 7 sc between
“legs” of the eyes. We insert the spout between 43 and 44 rows in the middle.
Make a tightening of the muzzle and shape the eyes and eyebrows
If you want to highlight the muzzle with white color, like mine, then start with
38th row, I will write how many white sc I have in each row on the muzzle in the middle:
38. white knit 12 inc (24)
39. – 40. 24 sc
41. 18 sc
42. 14 sc
43. 10sc
44.5sc
45. – 49. 4 sc
Ears
Inner part of the ear
Pink color
1. Cast on 7 ch, from the second loop from the hook we knit:
2. 6 sc, ch, turn,
3. 6 sc, ch, turn,
4. skip 1 loop, 3 sc, dec (pull loops from 2 stitches of the previous row and knit together), ch, turn,
5. 4 sc, ch, turn,
6. skip 1 loop, 1 sc, dec, ch, turn,
7.2sc
Pull the thread and cut it.
Ears
Outer part of the ear
Main color
1. Cast on 14 ch, from the second loop from the hook we knit:
2. 13 sc, ch, turn,
3. skip 1 loop, 10 sc, dec, ch, turn, (11)
4. skip 1 loop, 8 sc, dec, ch, turn, (9)
5. skip 1 loop, 6 sc, dec, ch , turn, (7)
6. skip 1 loop, 4 sc, dec, ch, turn, (5)
7. skip 1 loop, 4 sc (4)
Pull the thread and cut it. Fold both parts of the eye and use a thread from a ball of the main color to make a binding, connecting both parts. We start tying from the lower right corner. In the upper corner near the inside, knit 2 sc in one loop, because the outer part has 4 sc, and the inner part has 2 sc.
I sew on the ears with regular white thread for drawstrings.
Tail
We fill it a little with the main color during the knitting process.
1. 6 sc in MR (6)
2.6 inc (12)
3. 12 sc (12)
4. (3 sc, inc)×3 (15)
5. – 32. 15 sc (28 rows)
33. (3 sc, dec)×3 (12)
34.- 35. 12 sc (3 rows)
Make sl-st and leave the thread for sewing. Sew on 10-12 rows, i.e. 3 rows high (like an oval).
Your kitty is ready!
