KNITTED TOY CAT TAHITI

Click For Crochet Abbreviations List

"You have not been to Tahiti?" - "And they feed us well here too!" Who does not know these words? 
Charming fat cat became the universal favorite. 

Once A. Kurlyandsky and V. Karavaev invented a great company: the boy Vovka, the 
parrot Kesha, the crow-fashionista and, of course, the cat Vasily. 
However, his name is just a cat Tahiti. 

Knitted cat from the cartoon "The Return of the Prodigal Parrot" will surely win anyone's heart. 
He is sweet, smiling and good-natured. 

Materials: thin yarn (wool, cotton, acrylic) blue, white and yellow-red (better than sectional 
dyeing) color, slightly black, dark green and light green yarn, copper wire, sintepukh
(or other filler), embroidery threads (black, red, dark brown), accessories for 
suspenders, fishing line (or something suitable) for whiskers.

Crochet knit cat 
The body can be made thicker - for this you need a greater number of increases in the lower part of the body. 

3. “Leg (lower paw)” (2 pieces): 

First, 3 “pads” of white yarn are knitted separately (see photo No. 1), then they are joined.

"Pillows" (3 pieces for each leg): 

4 VP closes in a ring, knit in a circle. 

1 row: 4 increments = (8) 

2 row: SBN = (8) We 

connect 3 “pads” in one piece (see photo №2, №3), knit in a circle SBN (1 circular row) 
(see photo №4) . 

Then we repeat the rapport * 1 decrease, 1 SBN * until 13 loops 
(columns) remain in the circular row (see photo №5). 

Next 3 rows of sc in a circle of yellow yarn. 

Next, the RLS is a blue yarn (approximately 5-6 rows). 




Sequence leg knotting. 
4. “Hand (top paw)” (2 pieces): 
We knit like legs, only without using blue yarn. If you wish, you can do
“Pads” on hands are smaller (4 VP in a ring, row 1: 4 increases, row 2 is not knit, hereinafter described). 




Hands (upper legs) cat. 
5. "Muzzle" (white yarn): 
4 VP closes the ring. Knit in a circle. 

1 row: 4 increments = (8) 

2 row: 8 increments = (16) 

3 row: 1 scn, 3 gains, * 1 scn, 1 gain * - 4 times, 3 gains, 1 scn = (26) 

4 row: 1 sc, 6 increments, * 1 sc, 1 sc, 1 gain * - 4 times, 6 gains, 1 sc = (42) 

5 row: * 5 scn, 1 gain * - 7 times = (49) 

6 row: * 6 sc, 1 increment * - 7 times = (56) - 

TURN We knit from the wrong side 7 (incomplete) row: 4 half columns, * 7 SBN, 1 increase * - 6 times, 
4 semi columns = (62) - TURN

8 row (incomplete): 4 

semi-columns, 12 sc, 4 semi-columns, TURN 9 row (incomplete): 3 semi-columns, 3 sat, 1 giveaway, 3 sc, 1 giveaway, 2 sc, 8 
booster, 3 sc, 1 give, 3 SBN, 1 increment, 2 SBN, 4 semi-columns, TURN 

10 row: 4 semi-columns, * 2 SBN, 1 decrease * 2 times, 2 SBN, 8 semi-columns, * 2 SBN, 1 decrease * - 
2 times, 2 SBN, more Sc to the upper toe (see photo) 




2 “cheeks” should form. 

6. "Collar" (yellow yarn): 
Knit a chain of 75 VP. It does not fit in a circle! 

1 row: 37 SBN, 3 SBN in 1 loop, 37 SBN = (77) 

2 row: 2 SBN, * 11 SBN, 1 gain * - 3 times, 3 SBN in 1 loop, * 11 SBN, 1 gain * - 3 times, 2 sc = (84) 

3 row: 42 sc, 3 sc in 1 loop, 42 sc = (87)

4th row: 5 VP, 1 SBN, * 1 SBN, 5 VP, 1 SBN * - until the end of the row. 




If desired, the collar can be made wider. 
7. "Tail": 
Yellow yarn. Closing the ring 12 VP, knit in a circle. 

1 - 2 rows: 12 SBN = (12) 
3 row: SBN + 1 increase = (13) 
4 row: SBN + 2 gain = (15) 
5 row: SBN + 2 gain = (17)

9 row: SBN + 1 gain = (22) 
10 row: SBN + 2 gain = (24) 
11 Row: SBN + 2 increments = (26) 
12 row: SBN + 1 gain = (27) 
13 row: SBN (27) 
14 row: SBN + 1 gain = (28)

32 row: SBN, 2 increments = (9) 
33 row: SBN, 3 increments = (6) 
34 row: Sat, 3 increments = (3) 

Tighten the loop. 




The thickness of the tail can also be easily changed. 
8. “Ears” 
(yellow part, 2 parts): 

We knit a chain of 8 VP. It does not fit in a circle! 

1st row: 7 sc = (7)

2 row: VP lift, 7 SBN = (7) 

3 row: VP lift, * 1 SBN, 1 decrease * 2 times, 1 SBN = (5) 

4 row: VP lift, 1 SBN, 2 decrements = (3) 

Pull the loop. 

(white part, 2 parts) 

We knit a chain of 7 VP. 

1 row: 6 SCN = (6) 

2 row: RR elevation, * 1 RN, 1 decrease * - 2 times = (4) 

3 row: RR elevation, 2 reductions. 

Pull the loop. Sew yellow and white parts. 





For the volume inside each ear, put a little sintepukha. 
9. “Braces” (2 parts): 
We knit a chain of VP of the desired length. 

1st row: SBN (dark green) 

2nd row: SBN (light green) 

3rd row: SBN (dark green) 

10. Assembly 
Sew the collar to the cat's neck.




First, we sew the top of the collar (see photo No. 1), then we lay a strip of sintepukh and sew on the 
bottom of the collar (see photo No. 2). Keep the V-shaped collar. 
We embroider on paws with dark brown thread "pads". Sew paws to the body. 




We embroider white lines on jeans, do not forget about pockets. 




We make out a muzzle: we embroider a black thread of a mouth, points from a mustache, a red woolen thread language. 




Before we sew the muzzle to the head, we insert a mustache from the inside out of a suitable material (I used to take 
“stamens” for artificial flowers). You can take a thick fishing line. 




We stuff the muzzle with a synthetic winter coat. Cheeks and the whole face should be voluminous! 




Sew on ears, nose and eyes. They can be taken ready, can be cut from felt or other dense
tissue. I love all the items to knit. By the way, do not forget about mimic wrinkles on the face. 




Sewing suspenders. On the back they go crosswise. As accessories I used the details 
from the bra. 
Knitted cat crocheted jeans. 
Remember how the mysterious tag shone on the back pocket of the cat Basil?

The most important thing is the tail! 




Here is our handsome cat! But ... something is missing for him ... 
11. "Headphones" (2 parts): 
We close 4 VP in the ring. 

1st row: 4 increments = (8) 
2nd row: * 1 increment, 1 SBN * - 4 times = (12) 
3 row: SBN behind the back wall = (12) 
4 row: SBN = (12) 
5 row: 12 increments = (24) 
6 row: * 1 increase, 1 SN * * 12 times = (36)
7th row: Sc for the back wall = (36) 
8th row: 18 downs = (18) 
9th row: 9 downs = (9) 

Fill the part with a synthetic polyester. 

10 row: 4 subtracts, tighten the loop. 







Knitted headphones We 
connect the parts with thick copper wire. Headphones are ready. 




Now the cat Vasily is ready for a photo shoot! 




To the cottage! To fresh air! 
Sausage is tied with toes (no seams), full of padding. 




“You have not been to Tahiti?” - “And they feed us well here too!” 




“Excellent!”
