Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Seahorse (printable PDF-file / 92 pages)

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

This elegant Seahorse is available in two different body options in the same pattern - smooth and ridged! 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 beautiful soft-sculpture pattern with many photos in a detailed written instruction pattern!

This pattern is 92 pages long. The last 15 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, Spanish, German, and French. Translations can be found in the attached ZIP file. Este patrón está disponible en español. Diese Anleitung ist sowohl auf Deutsch erhältlich. Une traduction française du patron est maintenant disponible.

SUPPLY LIST Yarn (Exact amounts listed in pattern) One pair of safety eyes: 15-18mm recommended for worsted weight yarn G Hook (4mm) D Hook (3.25mm) Polyfil Stuffing Darning Needle Scissors OPTIONAL: Two 18 Inch, paper wrapped, 18g floral wires (available at craft stores or on-line). The wire needs to be stiff and strong enough to hold the seahorse body upright if the tail is to be wrapped around a prop. Alternatively you can skip the wire all together, but to have the distinctive spiral seahorse tail, you can leave an extremely long tail to start when you first make the body, keep it oriented to the inside of the body, and then, at the point when you would insert the wire, you can pull the yarn tail tight, turning the tail into a spiral shape from inside the Seahorse tail and anchor it by knotting it inside the body work. OPTIONAL Duct Tape
