For Sale - Amigurumi Kitty Dolls

For Sale - Amigurumi Kitty dolls.

Each doll is approximately 13 to 14 inches tall. The girls come with one dress that is removable, the boys will be wearing a pair of pants & a shirt that are worked on rather than removable.
* For more dresses or any change in clothing, PM me at Stitch_n_Frog@mchsi.com

Each doll is slightly different.  They are hand-made by me, and each has it's own personality.

I have some dolls pre-made for quick shipping, and will happily take orders for dolls in the colors of your choice.

The dolls are made in synthetic yarns for durability. 
* If you prefer a specific type of yarn, I can use that yarn but must re-price to allow for purchase of the yarn.  PM me for pricing.
* If you have your own yarn that you want made into a kitty, PM me for the price change.

The price for one kitty is $24.00 plus actual shipping cost. I will accept Pay Pal or money orders, but prefer Pay Pal.

Here are photos of a few dolls that are pre-made.

The doll on the left has already been purchased, she is there only for display purposes.


Patriotic  American Kitty



As you can see, this doll is a bunny rather than a kitty.
And she is a bit of a tomboy bunny~
 
More photos may be seen at my Flickr photostream

If you are interested in purchasing a Kitty, Bunny, or as a different animal, or want to get pricing for special yarn or changes in apperance, please convo me at Stitch_n_Frog@mchsi.com

What's cuter than a Cute Cotton Kitty?

Three Cute Cotton Kitties, of course!
Now I'm working on a ferret.  Quite a move from cute kitties to a ferret . . . but six kitties in a row are enough for now, it's past time to move on for a little while, then I'll get back to the kitties.  I think I need some white kitties, and maybe some gray kitties, some black kitties, and maybe some other color kitties too . . . . .
