Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Sea Turtle (printable PDF-file / 64 pages)

Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this pattern is for a Sea Turtle! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.

Make your very own serene sea turtle!! And of COURSE this pattern has options for you -- You get to choose between a sewing-heavy, very realistic, textured shell OR a no-sew shell that can beautifully showcase your favorite gradient yarns!! 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 pattern is 64 pages long. The last 13 pages of the PDF are a text-only printer-friendly version of the pattern. To conserve on printer ink, you can selectively print these pages. However, I strongly recommend you still refer to the photographic illustrations throughout the pattern if you have any questions.

This pattern is available in English, German, and French. Translations can be found in the ZIP file attached. Diese Anleitung ist sowohl auf Deutsch erhältlich. Une traduction française du patron est maintenant disponible.
