How to Crochet Dc 2tog?

Special Stitch: DcTog

Dctog literally means double crochet together . This stitch refers to a group of dc’s that drawn

together at the top. The number of dc’s in a dctog stitch is indicated by the number preceding the

word tog. For example, in this Weaved Wave Bracelet pattern, you’ll find dc 3tog and dc 2tog. The

video floating at the right shows a dc 2tog.



This stitch is used to decrease dc’s and is very similar to a dc-cluster. The dc-cluster is worked on

the same stitch or space while the dctog is worked on adjacent stitches or spaces.

The crochet instructions for a dc 3tog:

[Y o, insert hook in next st, draw a loop through, y o, draw through 2 loops] 3 x, y o, draw through all 4 loops on hook.

Caity Cat Tutorial

To make Caity Cat you will need:

A small amount of coloured yarn and a corresponding hook. Caity was made using DK(8ply) yarn and a 3.5mm hook. The flowers are made using a 3mm hook. Two buttons foreyes.

1. Begin by making the base of the cat. Chain 15, turn and single crochet (sc) into thesecond chain from the hook and in every stitch across. Chain 1 and turn, sc in every stitchacross- repeat until you have a rectangle 8 rows wide.

2. You will now be working in rounds. At the end of the seventh row continue around yourrectangle working along the short end putting an sc into each stitch, then sc in each stitchalong the opposite side and along the last short end.

3. Continue working in rounds – do not join at the end of each row just work continuouslyaround your retangle. Work four rounds in red, change colour and work four rows in pink.

Change colour and work 1 row in blue. On the next row sc 2 together once at each end ofyour cat (reducing the number of stitches in the round by 2). Exactly where you do this isn’thugely important, but try for the middle of each side. Continue round 3 and 4 in blue sc ineach stitch around.

4. Fasten off dark blue and change to light blue. Round 1 sc in each stitch around. Round 2decrease two times (once at each end: sc 2 together). Round 3 and 4 sc in each stitcharound.

5. Repeat this same pattern for the two green bands (decrease twice -once on either end – of round two). Join yellow and sc around 4 times – do not decrease. Fasten off, leaving along end.







6. Next make two ears. Using yellow yarn chain 4, join witha ss to form a ring, use a split ring marker- do not join again. Sc two times in each stitcharound (8), Sc 2 in the first stitch 1 sc in the next stitch, repeat around (12). Sc in each stitcharound 3 more times. Fasten off leaving a long end to sew ear on with. Repeat to makeanother ear.

7. Make a tail- sorry no photo for this, but it’s pretty easy. Chain 50, turn and sc in secondchain from hook and in each stitch across. Repeat so you have a long tail four rows wide,the tail will naturally curl up.

8. Finishing. Stuff cat body – I find the best thing for stuffing crochet toys is cotton woolballs. Sew closed the top opening. Attach ears and tail.












Eyes: Sc 5 times and join to form a ring. Round 1, Sc 2 times in each stitch around. Round2, Sc 2 times in first stitch, one sc in next stitch, repeat around. Fasten off, repeat to makeanother eye. Sew button into centre of eye and attach to cat. Embroider nose and mouth in

a cat like fashion.

Because Caity loves flowers she is decorated with crochet flowers- and there is even oneon her tail!!!

Small crochet flowers: Chain 4 and join to form a ring. Half double crochet (hdc) 10 timesinto the ring, and join with a ss. Hdc 3 times in the next stitch, ss into the next stitch, repeataround forming 5 petals. Make three flowers in different colours and sew onto cat, the flowerstems are simply chains, with leaves embroidered as I sewed the chain to the cat.

Large crochet flower (for the end of Caity’s tail): Chain 4 and join to form a ring. Half doublecrochet (hdc) 10 times into the ring, and join with a ss. Hdc 5 times in the next stitch, ss intothe next stitch, repeat around forming 5 petals. Sew onto the end of tail.

Thats it all done!
