Magnetic properties of stechiometric YTiO3 has been calculated within the single-ion-based paradigm taking into account the low-symmetry crystal field and the intra-atomic spin-orbit coupling of the Ti3+ ion. Despite of the very simplified approach the calculations reproduce perfectly the value of the magnetic moment and its direction as well as temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility chi(T). It turns out that the spin-orbit coupling is fundamentally important for 3d magnetism and magnetic properties are determined by lattice distortions.
