Free Pattern Friday! Neko Atsume Plush (2025)

So I bet a lot of you have discovered Neko Atsume (Kitty Collector) by now. I’m quite hooked myself so I just had to do some fanart to show my love for the game 😀 I whipped up some of my favorite kitties in plush form to have them around. The pattern utilizes a super simple sphere-like shape with a few twists. I could see it being really easy to adapt into other characters – I’m tempted to make a Luna, Artemis, and Diana trio myself!

In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy this pattern! I’ve given it a 2/10 stars, and even though it calls for some darts and curved sewing, I could see it as a great project if you’re a plush maker wanting to break out into something more complex 🙂

    amazing!!! ..I didn’t know of this game, now I want it! …I guess I can say I have “played” it in real life, since I have more than 20 rescued cats in my yard XD …but it would be fun to have many virtual cute kitties too 🙂
    This pattern comes in perfect timing because next week I will attend to a craft fair cat’ themed. So it is the perfect addition to many other cat’ themed products I am producing right now (some of them I purchased form your etsy). Thank you very much! 🙂

    I LOVE this game! It’s a silly obsession, but I am so hooked on it. And the toys you created are spot-on! SO adorable. Thank you so much! I think I need to make Pepper first.

    Thank you for the pattern! I just used it to make a little bean bag toy (I just filled it with dry beans and popcorn kernels). It works really well, even for someone with very limited sewing skills like myself. 🙂

      I’m glad you like it 🙂
      I’m working on a pattern in May that looks very similar to Pusheen, so I imagine just a few tweaks could bring it together 🙂 Free Pattern Friday! Neko Atsume Plush (21)
