I always loved cats! Since I was a baby I was close to cats and they were close to me. So, it's inevitable that I get much of my inspiration from my feline pals! This time, for the festive/winter issue of C2 Magazine, I came up with Hanna the cat amigurumi pattern.
Hanna the cat has an excellent personality! She's very clean, likes to be tidy and never cheats! She likes fish and treats and loves to go after flies and butterflies!
I used a spreckled yarn that looks like a kid drawing to me. That's the reason I chose to sew one of her ears tilted to the side. To add a little of the kid's whimsicality!
