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 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.
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!
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! :)
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!
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!!!
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...
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
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.
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.
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!
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 💙
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.
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!
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
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!
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!!
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!!
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!
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 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.
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 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!
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.
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
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! 😸😊
New subscriber here. I'm learning so I can teach my hubby. He enjoyed making hats and scarves last year, but he has a terminal illness and is a little weaker now. So, I'm trying to find things for him to make that doesn't take so long and is great for a little instant gratification. These will make really cute gifts for our grandbabies as well! Thanks so much for sharing!
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 😎
Love it. Instead of how many rows can I please ask how long it should be in inches before you take it off the loom as mine is coming up way shorter even when stretched
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

Thanks so much Kathy for posting the directions. My granddaughter loves cats, I was thinking making a mama cat with her baby.

Thank you! Hoping these work well. My little brother LOVES when he has a mom with a baby animal pair so I have definitely gotta try these ❤❤❤

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!

Laura - that is SUPER AWESOME 💛🙂💛🌻
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.
Such an adorable, yet simple little project. i could get hooked (pun intended!) on making these.
This is so adorable. I haven't knit in months, and this is the project that got me started again :) Thanks so much!
Just finished a larger version for my niece! It turned out so cute!!!
What size loom did you use to make larger, did you do the same amount of rows. Thanks.😊
My first attempt is nowhere near as good as yours, with a few mistakes, but good for a first attempt 😊 🐈
This looks like a really fun and easy first loom project! Thanks!
It truly is 🙂
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!
oh my goodness, this is soo cute and gorgeous.
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 💙

Thank YOU Candi - I'm soooooo glad you're enjoying the videos - I really appreciate you taking the time to leave positive feedback.
LoomaHat.com, Thanks for being an Amazing Instructor and showing us how to make such awesome loom creations ❤️
I did this as I watched the video, mine turned out so cute; Thank you! 😄
My little sister saw I was watching this and asked what it was going to be, so I showed her the thumbnail. Long story short, I'm making her one now 😂
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.
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 B. L. !!

New subscriber here. I'm learning so I can teach my hubby. He enjoyed making hats and scarves last year, but he has a terminal illness and is a little weaker now. So, I'm trying to find things for him to make that doesn't take so long and is great for a little instant gratification. These will make really cute gifts for our grandbabies as well! Thanks so much for sharing!
God Bless your hubby
That is soooo cute! It makes me want to go out and buy a loom set!
