Franky the Seahorse

Pattern level: for intermediate crocheters. This project is made in-the-round. Don’t slip-stitch the last stitch into the first stitch of the round. Use a removable stitch marker to mark the first stitch of the round, to keep track of when a round is finished. Final product measures at around 16cm*11cm*4.5cm ~ 6.3in*4.3in*1.8in. Size may differ due to personal crocheting tension, hook size and type of yarn used. Recommended hook size is listed below for each part, but many other sizes can be used according to what the yarn-weight used is calling for. Most purchased yarn brands will detail the appropriate range of crochet hook sizes to be used with it. This pattern is intended for personal use only. Do not claim, distribute, copy, edit, translate into other languages or sell. Objects made following this pattern may not be sold, but may be personally gifted. Materials and Tools: • Yarn; for this pattern, it’s best to use acrylic Worsted/DK weight-yarn. I personally used ‘Granada’ by the brand Superkit. • A crochet hook, in the corresponding size with the yarn: I used a 3.75mm (F). • a pair of safety-eyes. Alternatively, the eyes could be embroidered onto the seahorse, for example using a French Knot technique, with any yarn or embroidery floss of any chosen color. I used 6mm black safety eyes. • Scissors (to cut ends of yarn). • Tapestry needle (to weave in the end). • Polyfil amigurumi stuffing (A small handful. Hook or scissors can help you insert the stuffing into the body). • Removable Stitch markers (to help mark to the beginning of the round).
