A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

Free crochet cupid pattern: a Winking Cupid Cat with Heart Arrow amigurumi, about 12 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A white cat winks one eye, wears round pink wings and holds a golden arrow topped with a red heart. You need about 95 m of yarn: 65 m white, 15 m light pink, 5 m gold, 5 m red and 5 m pink. Plan on roughly 3 hours. Give it to a cat lover on Valentine's Day or keep it as a cheeky little guardian on the bookshelf. Rotate the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern; the wings and arrow are quick small parts.

How to crochet the Winking Cupid Cat with Heart Arrow

Advanced · 12 cm tall · about 3 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 17 pieces in rounds: Body, Head, Muzzle, Ear ×2, Paw ×2, Foot ×2, Wing ×2, Bow, Heart tail tip ×2, Tail, Cheek ×2 (112 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 13 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

What you'll need

Tick things off as you gather them.

0 of 10 gathered

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 4 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 3.6 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 25 sc × 28 rounds); yarn about 1.9 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

0 of 69 rounds done

  1. Size before assembly: about 5.9 cm at the widest, 5.4 cm long; 18 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 7.5 cm at the widest, 6.2 cm long; 25 rounds.
  2. → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  1. Size before assembly: an oval about 2.3 × 1.9 cm at the widest, 1.1 cm long; 4 rounds. The piece is oval: the rounds go around the chain, and on the finished toy the chain (the long side of the oval) runs side to side; the starting chain is at the front of the piece (on the finished toy). The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 1 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
  2. With white: ch 3.
  3. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 3.5 cm at the widest, 2.1 cm long; 7 rounds. Multi-colour rounds are listed stitch by stitch from the round-start marker; keep the round start on the piece's centre front line (as it sits on the finished toy). The order is for right-handed crocheting (right to left on the outside); left-handed: reverse it.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Shape it into a spoon: push the front wall into the back wall (not down to a thin plate) — a concave spoon about 4 mm deep in front, a rounded back, and rounded folds of two layers at the sides (about 5.7 mm thick); about 35 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 55 %) -->

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest, 2.4 cm long; 7 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 1.5 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly, then press the piece slightly flat (oval cross-section; flattened 40 %).

  1. Size before assembly: about 3 cm at the widest, 3.5 cm long; 12 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly only and press it flat to about 9 mm thick.<!-- flattened 70 % -->

  1. Size before assembly: about 0.8 cm at the widest, 4.9 cm long; 14 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Of these: on the bow — 1; on the tail — 1. Flat motif — heart (worked in rounds, one layer of fabric), about 2.8 × 2.8 cm; 2 rows.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest, 5.7 cm long; 16 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 80° around round 8<!-- the bend spreads over 5 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces toward the toy's left on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 8, 1.5 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left <!-- st 1.59 left -->). On the inner side draw rounds 7 and 9 together (2 rounds go into the fold): with the needle and matching yarn make 3–4 stitches through the loops of both rounds over about 2 st, pull to the angle and hide the end inside.

  1. A flat circle about 1.5 cm across; 2 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

    1. Body is the base; its magic ring is at the bottom.
    1. Head onto the body. Stuff the body firmly. Hold the head's closing point (last round) at the centre of the body's opening (R18) and sew the edge of the opening all round to the head: the seam runs along round 20 of the head (all the way round). Top up the neck with stuffing before closing the seam so the head does not wobble. Press it into the base by about 14 mm.
    1. Muzzle → head. Centre: between rounds 14 and 15, on the centre front line . Sew around the opening (16 st); the seam covers rounds 12–17 of the head, about 6 st wide. It points forward.
    1. Ear → head (make 2). Centre: in round 6, 6 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (19 st); the seam covers rounds 3–10 of the head, about 6 st wide. Keep the spoon hollow side forward; the opening lies in a curve following the head, both layers sewn down. It points up and slightly outward.
    1. Paw (left) → body. Centre: in round 10, 8 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right . Flatten the opening (4 st against 5 st) and sew it on in a straight line top to bottom (along the body), across the rounds: rounds 8–12 of the body, about 1 st wide. It points forward and slightly outward.
    1. Paw (right) → body. Centre: in round 10, 8 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left . Flatten the opening (4 st against 5 st) and sew it on in a straight line front to back, along the round: rounds 9–11 of the body, about 3 st wide. It points forward and up and outward.
    1. Foot → body (make 2). Centre: in round 3, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (10 st); the seam covers rounds 2–4 of the body, about 4 st wide. It points forward.
    1. Wing → body (make 2). Centre: in round 12, 12 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Flatten the opening (3 st against 3 st) and sew it on in a straight line side to side (across the toy), across the rounds: round 12 of the body, about 1 st wide. It points up and slightly outward.
    1. Bow → paw. Centre: in round 7, on the centre front line. Sew around the opening (6 st); the seam covers rounds 5–6 of the paw, about 2 st wide. It points up.
    1. Heart tail tip (no. 1) → bow. Centre: at the centre of the magic ring. Stand the motif on its edge and sew it on by its lowest edge; the seam covers round 1 of the bow, about 2 st wide. It points up.
    1. Tail → body. Centre: in round 5, on the centre back line. Sew around the opening (10 st); the seam covers round 5 of the body, about 4 st wide. It points backward and up.
    1. Heart tail tip (no. 2) → tail. Centre: at the centre of the last round. Stand the motif on its edge and sew it on by its lowest edge; the seam covers rounds 15–16 of the tail, about 1 st wide. It points up.
    1. Cheek → head (make 2). Centre: in round 14, 6.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 12–16 of the head, about 3 st wide.

    Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.

    • Safety eye with a printed glint 14 mm (on the head): in round 12, 4 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right .
    • Embroidery in black thread (on the head), straight stitches through: (in round 12, 3.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 11 and 12, 4 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 12, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
    • Satin stitch (on the muzzle): in nose thread, a triangle about 6 mm wide and 4.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre top line .
    • Embroidery in mouth thread (on the muzzle), straight stitches through: (in round 1, on the centre bottom line ) → (in round 2, on the centre bottom line ).
    • Embroidery in mouth thread (on the muzzle) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image), straight stitches through: (in round 2, on the centre bottom line ) → (in round 3, 1 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 2 and 3, 1.5 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left ).
