No-Sew Sea Turtle

Free version of this pattern is viewable here: https://www.sweetsofties.com/2024/04/no-sew-sea-turtle.html

The No-Sew Sea Turtle works up quickly and easily. This marine amigurumi features a realistic looking turtle with curved flippers and a textured shell. It is designed with super bulky chenille velvet yarn for a huggable, 9-inch plush, but can also be crocheted with other yarn fibers. Try using blanket yarn, or use medium / worsted weight acrylic and cotton yarn for a smaller, keychain size turtle. It’s the perfect birthday gift or Christmas holiday gift for animal lovers and turtle enthusiasts.

The PDF pattern includes in-line progress photos as part of a photo tutorial to help guide you through the doll-making process.
