Free Cat Crochet Patterns

Cats are the internet's favourite animal and crochet's too: this page gathers free cat crochet patterns, from amigurumi kittens to cat-face motifs, scarves and pixel-art placemats, each translated into US-standard notation with stitch counts.

Cat designs live or die on the face: whisker placement, eye shape and ear angle carry all the personality, so embroider features before assembling and check them against the reference photos from multiple angles. For black cats — a running favourite here — use a slightly larger hook or lighter-coloured stitch markers, because counting black stitches at night is its own circle of hell. These patterns range from single-evening motifs to weekend plushie projects.
