The Cat's Pajamas (with bunny slippers!)

The Cat’s Pajamas Crochet Pattern - Pippin Cat Amigurumi Toy, Intermediate

Meet The Cat’s Pajamas, a meaningful addition to the Giving Collection — a series of special-edition crochet patterns where 100% of proceeds are donated to charitable causes.

This design reaches back to the very beginning of my crochet journey. Long before Fat Lady Crochet existed, there was Pippin Cat Crochet, named after our tiny grey rescue cat, Pippin, who joined our family in 2010. She was the inspiration behind my earliest sketches and one of the first characters I ever imagined in yarn.

After Pippin’s passing in November 2025, it felt like the right time to finally bring her to life as a finished design and share her story with the community that has supported my work for so many years.

The Cat’s Pajamas features a sweet, pajama-clad kitty with striped jammies and tiny bunny slippers. It is designed to be approachable, thoughtfully constructed, and full of heart.

This pattern is a love letter to the cat who started it all. By purchasing this design, you are helping honour her memory while directly supporting charitable causes through the Giving Collection. 

Description:

The Cat’s Pajama’s crochet pattern is designed with a focus on clarity and structure. The construction is streamlined, making it easier to complete while still achieving a polished final result.

Key features of this pattern include some basic stitching in regard to assembling the arms and tail, very adorable bunny slippers, and stripey pajamas that can be colour customizable, all working together to create a finished piece that is both recognizable and satisfying to make.

Whether you’re creating it for yourself or for a gift, this pattern provides clear, step-by-step guidance from start to finish.
