Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Tiny Trio: Betta Fish, Frog & Octopus (printable PDF-file / 52 pages)
Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this is a tiny trio of patterns: A Betta Fish, A Frog and an Octopus! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.
Each pattern is is written as ALL ONE PIECE with NO SEWING (except to weave in/sew the final hole shut)! There is an option for adding wire to the Frog. There is also a fourth super secret bonus pattern at the end! The effect is amigurumi-like, though there are some distinct techniques used that are not used in single crochet-only amigurumi. The gauge is not crucial to the pattern as long as the stitches are tight enough to hold stuffing. This is a really nifty pattern with many photos in a detailed written instruction pattern!
This pattern is a total of 52 pages containing a full set of written instructions with photographic illustrations, and there are video tutorials for particular steps and stitches available on my YouTube channel. This Pattern consists of ONE PDF File, and the last 8 pages are Text-Only, Printer-Friendly instructions, but I strongly recommend you still refer to the photographic illustrations throughout the pattern if you have any questions.
