CROCHET PATTERN
Chi Chi Kitty Redesign/Update Chi Chi was the first patterns I shared with you on my blog all those years ago.. I apparently made the project page on R in 2009, but I actually designed the pattern in 2008... so it's OLD! And in much need of a 'makeover'... Which is exactly what I've done - There are 2 Head/Body Versions (one that Head & Body are made separately and then joined together and the original version which was all one piece.. no sewing.. yeah!) I hope you enjoy this revisioned version of Chi Chi the Kitty or "Stray Little Kitty" ✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦ | |

If you find it necessary to ch-1 at turn, this will count as your 1st stitch. ✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦⋆✦ NEW STYLE (2 Parts) BODY: (Make 1) with White, ___ Rnd 1: Using either the [ch 2, begin work in 2nd st from hook] or [magic circle] method to begin project, 6 sc in st (6 sts) ___ Rnd 2: [Inc in nxt st] 6 times (12 sts) ___ Rnd 3: [Inc in nxt st] 12 times (24 sts) ___ Rnd 4: sc in ea st around (24 sts) ___ Rnd 5: [sc in ea of nxt 7 sts, Inc in nxt st] 3 times (27 sts) ___ Rnds 6-9: sc in ea st around (27 sts) ___ Rnd 10: [sc in ea of nxt 7 sts, Dec nxt 2 sts tog] 3 times (24 sts) ___ Rnd 11: [sc in ea of nxt 2 sts, Dec nxt 2 sts tog] 6 times (18 sts) ___ Rnd 12: sc in ea st around (18 sts) Finish off leaving sufficient tail remaining to secure Body to Head.
