Notes
I made this amigurumi doll using the “Yarn Under Single Crochet”
technique. This technique makes the stitches tighter and appears
more aligned.
I also used a half-color changing technique to achieve cleaner lines
when changing colors from one row to another.
These cat ears are made to be removable so you can reuse your
headband!
Each ear (from tip to base) measures approximately 7.5 cm
(almost 3 inches)

Assembly
Stuff the triangle ears with some poly-fil and then use the ends of the
yarn to sew up the bottom so they don’t come out. If you want fluffy
ears, you can use a slicker brush to brush them out like I did with the
Red Panda/Fox ears that I made not too long ago.
Then use the ends of the pink inner ear and sew it to the triangle ears.
Attach the base sleeve/attachment rectangular piece for the bottom of
the ears.
Feed the headband through the base sleeve/attachment. I only had
black headbands at home at the time of making Gabby’s cat ears, but
in the show the headband is white. So if you want to stay true to the
show, use white headbands!
If all is attached properly, the crochet cat ears will sit on the headband
with no need for additional glue. And in the future when they grow out
of the show, you can remove those cat ears and re-use the headbands!
