This pattern uses small amounts of each yarn, so it’s a great way to use up leftover odds and ends from other projects. I use Knit Picks Palette yarns for most of my amigurumi creations because I can be sure of uniformity in my stitches and with 150 colors available, I can always find the right color for any project.

If you would like to make a larger mermaid, just substitute a bulkier yarn and use a hook large enough to work the yarn but keep a tight fabric with no gaps between stitches.

Amigurumi creations are typically worked at a very tight gauge in order to make a thick and firm fabric that can be stuffed without any of the stuffing showing through.

Using the specified yarn, your mermaid should be about 5-inches tall.
