I have to tell you that you are right! The turtle is so cute it's worth the growing pains! I am a beginner, and yes, it's a challenge, but my heart giggles every time I look at the parts! 😍 I was without power for 24 hours, so during the day I whipped up 5 shells...because I remembered how to do them. Then I made 6 jellyfish tentacles because I remembered those too. 😁 I am 59 and am loving learning new things! Thank you so much! I now have 3 turtles stuffed and one jelly completed. ❤

Well...mine came out pointy. I think instead of crocheting of crocheting in the front loops, I'll do the top front loop and back loop. Maybe that will flatten it a bit more. Im so disappointed but not giving up! 😊❤

Why can’t they do as in Europe, placing a sticker at the beginning of the skein? Sure would help with the yarn barf!
@loopsandknotscrochet17 күн бұрын
Ooo, that's interesting! I remember getting a skein like that before, but they definitely overdid it with the sticky part of the sticker (had to cut off a good portion of the yarn). Maybe that's why? 😂

Hiii ! I begun crochet about 2 weeks ago, I wanted to make a cute little sea turtle and saw your video ! Your pattern looks so cute, thank you ! 😊 I was wondering if it is possible to make a smaller version of that pattern ? Can I just divide by two the number of stitches or do I need a completely different pattern ? (I also have smaller yarn but I’m afraid to not have enough to make all of it, that’s why I wanted to know if it is possible to divide stitches) (Sorry if i made mistakes, english isn’t my first language )
@loopsandknotscrochetАй бұрын
Hi! You could definitely try halving the stitch count! It might be harder to crochet the fins closed, but it could work! Let me know if you run into any problems trying to shrink it, I might be able to help! 🥰🤗

Congrats! I'd say use a bigger hook in the future. You want to be able to crochet smoothly without the stitches being too loose (or tight). Make sure to experiment to find what works best! 🥰💕

Does it look ok if you attach the fins and head with the same colour as the shell (or even a different colour altogether) has anyone tried this? Thanks ❤

It's pretty easy! The only 'hard' part is crocheting the limbs together, but I break it into steps in the video, so it should be fairly easy to follow! It is no-sew with some optional sewing to attach the head more firmly. You can skip to the belly portion of the video and see how it's all connected! 🥰🥰
