Well, refresh your memory of those experiences by crocheting one of the most massive gentle creatures in our oceans: the whale! This cute little aquatic wonder will sit on your mantle reminding you of the days you want to escape to snorkel, scuba, or even just wriggle your toes in the sand.

So pick up that hook, and crochet this underwater ballerina in to your life!
