I think I like it a little too much. :D
Since I first saw this neko and its pattern that Nekoyama-san created, I have been wanting to make one.
This kitty can sit fabulously well!
She needed a little rest...
I couldn't help it, I just had to dress her up a little! :D
The pattern in English can be found at Nekoyama-san's website).
- Stole pattern not included.
This is THE famous Japanese amigurumi neko. As some of you probably know, they even have its published pictorial in Japan!
The yarn I used to make this neko is Bernat Softee Chunky, and it's approximately 12 1/2" tall when sitting.
I made this amigurumi for my newborn niece in Japan, but I almost don't want to send it to her. :D This cat to me is an ultimate zen cat, and I just have to make another one ASAP for myself!
love your cat. i'm sure your neice will love it too!

I think her eyes are the best feature of this neko too! When I look at her, it reminds that stop and rest is a good thing. :D
