Is This a No-Sew Amigurumi Pattern?
The Fatcat Keychain Amigurumi crochet pattern by Yarn Over with Natasha Smuts is a no-sew project. This makes it excellent for beginners and last-minute gifts. It’s a great starting point for those new to crochet who would like to complete their first amigurumi project.
What Yarn Do I Need for This Keychain Project?
For this crochet cat amigurumi, you can use any yarn you want. It’s so small, you can literally use just the yarn scraps from your stash to finish it.
However, you should keep in mind that the thicker the yarn, the bigger your cat will be. Similarly, the thinner the yarn, the smaller it will get.
To make a toy measuring 8 cm tall, go for a 3 mm hook and light worsted-weight yarn. The designer used Charity (Saprotex) Double Knit Pullskein to make her sample.
