I made this little critter last night and I loved it. My dear Koi called him Tsuki and since she looks like a moon cat, the name stuck. This is the first time im working with an amigurumi this small and i loved it. in fact, I made a mini chihuahua, Zukki as well.I wrote up the pattern.This is my first pattern.
