I really enjoy making these little kittens for children during this COVID. 19 pandemic. It serves as a little comfort toy for them and brings many smiles including my own. I work on the frontlines looking after frontline workers children during the day. Thank you.
I made some medium size kitties (I used the red loom ) and sent them to my Dad's wife daughter who is a social worker. She is using them for family therapy sessions to help the children feel more comfortable. She says she hopes they don't disappear LOL. That is why I made them larger, little kitties, little pockets! 😀💝
Thanks a lot for sharing. This is actually the only video with loom knitting that shows the making of a toy instead of winter hats, gloves and scarfs. Awesome tutorial!
I love this pattern. It's quick, easy, and fun. A lot of people have asked about scaling up the pattern to the larger looms and I wanted to do that too. I'll spare you all the convoluted path my mind took to arrive at the numbers except to say that the original pattern on the 5 inch loom was a play on multiples of 5. So I went from there with the other looms using the diameters of the looms as my base. I've done one with the 7 inch loom and my friend's granddaughter loved it. But I haven't done a big or huge kitty yet so I'm not sure if the proportions are correct or not. I plan to make a whole lot of these of different sizes and then donate to our local women's shelter since they make great comfort toys. Bigger Kitty 7” - 31 Peg Round Loom Body - 49 Rows Tail - use 7 pegs Tail Tip - 6 rows Rest of Tail - 56 Rows BIg Kitty 9” - 36 Peg Round Loom Body - 81 Rows Tail - use 9 pegs Tail Tip - 8 rows Rest of Tail - 82 Rows Huge Kitty 11 - 47 Peg Round Loom Body - 121 Rows Tail - use 11 pegs Tail Tip - 10 rows Rest of Tail - 122 Rows
Hi Kathy unless I test the patterns I can not in all conscience say yes or no. I soooooo wish I could be more helpful especially because you will be donating them. Unfortunately time is just not my friend right now - can barely keep up with my pending task list. I will keep the information for possible future down time. If I test the information I will post the information. If you manage to get them done can you PLEASE send me pictures ... denise@loomahat.com.
This is the perfect starting project for young beginners. My child (very interested in amigurami crafts, but not quite ready for crochet) was able to follow along and stay interested- even with the intimidating sewing and embroidery bits. Thank you! Your instructions are so clear and so simple, there was no frustration at all in following along! He's so proud of his finished tiny kitty and excited to make more! :)
Thank you for posting this! It is so nice to knit and have such great results. I am starting my second one now in lilac. It shouldnt take long, as I finished the other in a few hours! There's nothing better than knitting for a few hours and getting such a cute kitty at the end...
Again Thank you! I just finished my second one.. since yesterday! They are so much fun to make and so simple! But I still need practice with sewing! lol 💙
I made a white and pink one for my grandma when she went in for breast cancer surgery. She loved it! It is now called Tata Kitty 😄 What a cute pattern and thank you for sharing!!
Love this tutorial! I gave a kitty to my colleague for her daughter and she loves it! My colleagues saw the kitty and now want one for themselves! Have to go and knit at least one more!
These little cat toys turned out to be the perfect size for a charity I knit for! I kit for a charity that gives hats, blankets and toys premature babies and newborns.
Yay this turned out so cute thanks for posting this tutorial! I used old fabric leftovers for stuffing and added some lavender and mugwort to the inside. It smells great as well as looks really cute. This is a great video thank you!
Ditto - I'm so with you on that one ! I've got a list of their favorite colors and will use the charms for messages like : made with love- best sister - love ... eBay is great for charms
My stepdaughter is making one of these for her mother for Mother’s Day. It’s her first knitting project and your video is very informative! Thank you!!!
so adorable!..I've been searching for a loom knit pattern for a cat thank you so much for posting this. I can't wait to get started on them for my nieces!
Hello! I love this video I’m going to show it to my nine-year-old and see if she would like to try it. Thank you for showing it to us and welcome to our UA-cam family!
I'm not sure which size loom I used; it was for an adult hat. that's all I know. and I knit until it was the desired length. I didn't actually count how many rows I did. sorry I can't be more helpful.
The second time around I took watched and took notes. 4 pages worth. The 3rd time I had to pause and use a stitch counter. My sons are teenagers but still young enough to love plusies and they wanted me to make them one. Plus a few friends offered to pay me to do it for their little ones.
You are so good!! I just love watching your videos and learning from you! You teach so great and easy to follow!! Thank you cuz I just love loom knitting!!
I would have y’all in stitches if I did an expectation vs reality type reel with hers vs mine. I have so much fun making her stuff, though. Thanks Denise!
What a lovely video. I've been making hats, scarves, mittens, slippers and flowers on knitting looms - I'm excited to add these cute kitties to my repertoire!
Thank you so much! This is the very first time I succeeded in making something other than a very basic scarf with just an e-stitch. Your channel is so super creative and clear in instructions. I'm gonna follow all your tutorials!!
I love this video, I have so much scrap yarn and this is perfect to use it up. I plan to stuff them full of catnip and donate them to a local chapter of the Humane Society
Oh my! That is fantastic. I love the charms added and the flowers. Also, " the little guy is watching you" part. haha You've done a super job there.What an adorable cat!
Oh wow, this is awesome! All I'd made before was hats and scarves, but your instructions are so good that I made this little guy with no problems! I used the plastic eyes that pop on from the back, and I just love it! Thanks for a wonderful tutorial and a cute project!
I love your videos...bought a loom set and a book and almost give up as everything looked so complicated. Then I started watching your videos and it was so easy. I’ve made a few of your hats and I’m going to start practicing with the toys as soon as I get some stuffing. Thanks so much!
So Adorable Denise!! I literally just logged on UA-cam looking for a tutorial for a "loom knit toy" of some kind, because I have family coming in from Florida next weekend, and there are gonna be some kiddos there. I wanted to make them something to take with them. And this is PERFECT!!! Thanks so much for sharing your talent and making it so easy to follow!! Well, off I go!! I have kitties to make! 😸😊
I love this tutorial! I've made 3 now. The first one I doubled eyelash yarn with plain and ended up with the scruffiest looking "kitty" ever. So much fun!
I love this. My girl scout troop is making cat toys for an animal shelter. This will be great with a little catnip inside. Thank you. post more small aminal toy ideas please.
To be honest to being with I was a little lost but as others have said I made a tiny one and then thought I could make it bigger it's so easy to do I love it I make my cats with a fluffy yarn
Thank YOU for the Thank you Suzanna, I really appreciate it ! Hey - and the first takes a bit of time - the next one will go much quicker - you know you can't make just one - they need friends
I have been looking for a good video to make a dog and haven't found one. Looking at a few of your videos i put together a few things from each of them to make a puppy. You inspired me to attempt to make a puppy.
How creative You are 😊 these would be so cute for little children who have very little. I guess this could also be turned into a doggy? Thank You. You’re 😎
I receve the kit from Walmart and I make my first took and I see what you do I love it and I'm gone try to make my own I really like the video thank you
If you like the video please consider sharing it and purchasing the pattern - it helps a lot 💛 Thank YOU : loomahat.store/products/tiny-kitty-cat

Awweee that is so thoughtful. 😁😁😁
So did ur loom have less pegs because mine has more and I wasn’t sure if a different amount of pegs would work
OOOh. Good to know that works. Because the first thing I thought was "What if I want them bigger"
Good for you because I failed in this I really suck at knitting
Thanks a lot for sharing. This is actually the only video with loom knitting that shows the making of a toy instead of winter hats, gloves and scarfs. Awesome tutorial!

This is so adorable. I haven't knit in months, and this is the project that got me started again :) Thanks so much!
Such an adorable, yet simple little project. i could get hooked (pun intended!) on making these.
Love it!! Getting my retirement hobbies together, time to learn to knit, even if it's a loom.

LoomaHat.com, Thanks for being an Amazing Instructor and showing us how to make such awesome loom creations ❤️
Excellent video! I modified it by using an adult hat size loom and made a large kitty as a stuffy for my friend's baby.
Awesome - I've heard of several folks doing that. If you have a pic and can share it that would be great - denise@loomahat.com
Alex Poyner how many rows did you do and which size loom did you use?
When you modified it did you still knit 25 rows?
I'm not sure which size loom I used; it was for an adult hat. that's all I know. and I knit until it was the desired length. I didn't actually count how many rows I did. sorry I can't be more helpful.
