MATERIALS AND TOOLS:

  • Cotton yarn in DK/light worsted/size 3 in gray or blue and cream or white I used Rico Creative Ricorumi DK in Denim and Mastic for the blue dolphin
  • 2.5 mm crochet hook / Size B-1 or C-2, depending on how tightly you crochet
  • Black embroidery floss
  • Large-eyed sewing needle
  • 5 mm safety eyes (optional)
  • Fiberfill
  • Stitch markers
  • Yarn needle
  • Sewing pins
  • Scissors

SIZE:
The dolphin will be approx. 7.5” (19 cm) long if using the indicated hook and yarn.
If you want it to be larger or smaller, you can use a different yarn weight and adjust the hook size accordingly.

CONSTRUCTION:
The head and body are crocheted in one piece. The tail fin is crocheted on. The dorsal and pectoral fins are sewn on. The mouth and eyes are embroidered (There is the option to use safety eyes instead).
