12/31/2013 Update: The pattern has been updated, and it is now available for free on my blog.

Meet Pusheen, the cute cat!

To make Pusheen, you will need:

210 yards of worsted weight yarn (Red Heart Soft© yarn in “light grey heathers” was used as the main color).

75 yards of acrylic yarn (Red Heart Super Saver© Solids/Heathers in “dark grey heathers” was used as the dark stripe)

A 4.00 MM crochet hook

10” of black yarn (for the mouth. You can add whiskers, but I chose not too).

a pair of 12.00 MM plastic craft eyes

Polyester stuffing

a tapestry (darning) needle

Note: This pattern is worked in the round, in a spiral. You will not join each round.

The stitches and techniques you need to know:

Single crochet (abbreviated SC)

Half double crochet (abbreviated HDC)

Slip stitch (abbreviated SS)

Increasing (abbreviated SC 2 IN NEXT ST)

Decreasing (abbreviated DEC)

Magic ring (abbreviated MR)

I do not own ANY part of Pusheen the cat. She is not my design. I only made this pattern so people can make their own stuffed Pusheen. Because Pusheen© is a copyrighted character, you may NOT sell items made from this pattern. You may NOT sell this pattern, as it is my property (and it is a copyrighted character).

You are welcome to give items made from this pattern as gifts, but that is all. If you post the finished item on your blog, social media, ETC, please credit me as the designer (Example: This pattern was designed by Emma, owner of Emmasanimalcreations). It is not necessary, but I would appreciate it. Also, please do not post the pattern on your blog. I kindly ask you to link the pattern to your blog. Thank you for understanding.
