With this pattern, you can make a big floppy cuddly kitten. The kitten is easy to make. The arms and legs are simple tubes, with just a bit of increasing and decreasing to shape the paws. There is also a little bit of shaping to make a tubby tummy and round face.

The white face patch and stomach piece are worked separately and sewn on afterwards, to avoid complicated colour-changes whilst knitting.

The little knitted paw pads are worked in pink yarn. If you prefer a simpler pattern, you can leave out the pink paw pads, or replace them with patches of pink felt sewn on with pink thread.

A donation from sales of cuddly kitten knitting patterns is made to the charity Sustain, which runs Sustainable Fish City, a campaign to conserve precious fish stocks and fishing livelihoods for future generations (and cats!) to enjoy, see: www.sustainablefishcity.net.
