Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Merlion (printable PDF-file / 89 pages)
Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this pattern is for a Merlion!! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.
This pattern comes with instructions to make a Merlion!! The pattern comes with the Merlion body, head, ears, and Style 1 of the Mane, Dorsal, pectoral, and tail fins!! This pattern features clear step by step instruction with a lot of row-by-row photos. The gauge is not crucial to the pattern as long as the stitches are tight enough to hold stuffing.
This pattern is a total of 89 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 19 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.
