This is a pattern for the ultimate in no fuss fish keeping, your very own crocheted Goldfish. No nasty water to change and no feeding required.
The pattern is worked in the round until the tail.
The yarn used can be from Crewel Wool using a 1mm hook, up to 4ply cotton on a 2.5mm hook, the finished size depends on the yarn used.

Finished Size
Crewel Wool - 2cm
Perle 5 - 2.5cm
Perle 8 - 4cm
4ply cotton - 5cm

Gauge is not too important, it just needs to be tight enough so that the stuffing does not show through.

Additional Materials Required:

Small black beads for the eyes
Beading needle
Invisible thread or thin fishing line to secure the fish and sew on the eyes
Toy Stuffing
