Cats Free Amigurumi Patterned Toy Mouse
The mouse model is great for using small yarn oddities – it only takes 18 m / 20 yard DK / light worsted yarn and you can always make them striped to use smaller quantities remaining. In addition, the body and tail are all in one piece, only the ears are made separately, so little stitches are needed.
Feel free to use this pattern as you wish – maybe toys for your own pets, maybe for friends, maybe for your local pet shelter, or maybe for sale – it’s entirely up to you!
