Manatee Amigurumi Stuffed Toy

The gentle sea-cow called the manatee spends over half its day sleeping and the other half grazing for food -- sounds like a wonderful life! They're capable of complex associative learning, have excellent memories, and communicate with a wide range of sounds to maintain contact with each other and deepen relationships. If their flippers could hold a book or a crochet hook I'd want to reincarnate as one! This listing is for "Marianne" the manatee, who is a plush and happy Trichechidae working up to be approximately two feet long and 8 inches across the chest. Please be aware that, although I try to make my patterns as simple and easy to understand as possible, you may get more value from them if you are an intermediate to experienced crocheter. A familiarity with sc, dc, increases, decreases, and working in the round will serve you in good stead. Vox Mortuum Designs are amigurumi crochet representations of all manner of mythical and odd creatures, meant to delight and inspire you!
