Greetings to everyone, friends, we will work with you a wonderful amigurumi crochet cat pattern at the end of a nice weekend. First of all, I would like to thank the owner of the pattern. Thanks to the detailed step by step amigurumi pattern instruction, you can easily complete the cute crochet cat amigurumi toy. The crocheted cat does yoga, and that’s why she has a yoga mat on her back. Now I invite you to the crochet cat amigurumi pattern instruction.
