PATTERN

Thank you!
If you have any questions or need assistance with the crochet pattern, feel free to reach out.
Crocheting is relaxing and it’s always fun to make something new, but sometimes patterns
can be tricky to follow. Don't hesitate to ask for clarification on any part of the pattern that
seems confusing. Practice makes perfect, so don't get discouraged if you encounter any
difficulties along the way. Happy crocheting!

Body

Legs

R1 8sc in MR

R2 8 inc (16)

R3-6 16 sc around (16, 4 rounds)

R7 (3sc, inc) x4 (20)

Make 2 legs like this and F.O. weave ends in.

Make 2 additional legs but instead of F.O. follow the next

directions

Connect leg to one of the F.O legs with 3 sc. F. O. and weave in the
end of the first connection. Do not F.O the second connection.

This is what the two connections will look like.

 After the second pairing join the four legs together with 3 sc down
one side, chain, turn, and continue back down through the cross
section with 7 sc.

This is what the final result should look like after all of the legs are
connected.

R1 Continuing from the end of the 7 sc.

Make 60 sc around the entire outside of the legs

R19 4 dec (4)

F. O. and leave a very long tail (I would do at least 2 feet to be safe)

Sew the top closed and then thread the yarn through the top and
then through the bottom 4 times creating quarters to the bulb, be
sure to pull tight (but don’t break the yarn) to create shaping.

Assembly Cute a long piece of Deep Sea yarn, attach the bulb to the body.

Cut a long piece of Teal yarn, sew the head on. Rows 9 - 14
connected to the body. I secured the head to the bulb as well with
3 stitches.
 Details Using Pink add blush directly below the eyes, spanning 2 stitches.

Add patches of green to your liking on the body. I would thread

green through one base stitch and then use that same starting
point to go through 4 or 5 stitches in a row always returning to
that base stitch.
