My yarn was a bit chunkier so now I have a HUGE turtle it’s like the size of my fore arm! Love this tutorial! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@macymiller8743]

Omg I’m giggling but I LOVE THAT! What yarn did ya use?

[@TornadoKid0955]

Bernal blanket yarn I can’t find the size but it was a bit thicker than the tutorial srry

[@theredrenard]

I use Bernat as well! I’m so excited. What size hook did you use? I’m using a 10mm one rn

[@TornadoKid0955]

@@theredrenard I used a 7.5mm hook but this comment was from 7 months ago and I’m now more experienced at crochet and I now realize a 7.5mm hook might have been too big for the yarn remember to always read the yarn label it gives a recommended hook size :)

[@Haribrox]

I did one with really small yarn and now I have a very cute little tortoise :D

[@brittanymiller3961]

Just got into making stuffies, and was looking to do something with the yarn my sister picked out for a blanket before she passed. I’m now making these for my whole family. Thank you for this Video you have no idea what this will mean to our family!!

[@Fluffykittypaws]

My condolences, may she rest in peace 🕊

I’ve been looking for a simple crochet tutorial for a tortoise/ turtle that I could make while pregnant :) so excited to make something for baby myself. Thank you for sharing this tutorial! Easy to follow, well structured and the result is adorable.

[@ananasihha]

[@Katie-eh6qs]

Aww cutee! I’m doing the same here, my mum is kindly knitting baby a blanket so thought I’d give crocheting a turtle a try !☺️

[@user-ev3jp2rp6o]

THANK YOU SO MUCH I was planing to make a big turtle for my mom’s friend, I used a 9mm hook it turned out amazing! This helped A LOT!

[@hobispanda9862]

This is my second pattern I have used from you ^^ the first one was a cow and it came out ADORABLE and so far this one is doing REALLY good

[@Carly_The_Plant]

I’m making this with normal thin yarn and it’s still a pretty good size. Perfect for my boyfriend. (I was making this for myself but he wants one so bad that I’ll make 2😂)

[@ittybittysoccs3189]

I always get so happy when you post! You're so great and your creations are top tier! Please continue with these videos

[@kathleenkelly7957]

I’m going to try this. I am a total beginner to amigurumi I have made a small ball and that’s it. I saw this on tik tok and thought it was the cutest thing ever. I am going to try this so wish me luck lol.

[@oreoandcreamcracker1473]

I did not realise how big this would be and just really hope I don’t run out of yarn. I kinda wish I made the smaller version lol

[@nathalieleveaux]

Et moi qui m’étais promis de faire moins de dépenses en laine…🙄😁 Merci pour vos tutos. Je les découvre petit à petit avec un inifini plaisir. C’est magnifique 😍. Salutations de Suisse😃.

[@shonacurran1311]

Great tutorial. I'm new to crochet / amigurumi. I made this turtle as my second ever amigurumi piece and it came out great. Thank you!

[@bellaclaira]

I’m using SUPER chunky yarn, and just making the head and flippers alone, are as big as my head!! I love this pattern though, thank you so much!! ❤

[@OfficialKillaJ]

What size hook did you use? And how big did it come out to be?

[@bellaclaira]

@@OfficialKillaJ I used a 11.5 hook, and it turned out, probably 3x the size of hers. It’s so fluffy and cute! I 100% recommend!

[@OfficialKillaJ]

@bellaclaira oh dang that's huge! Haha thank you!!

[@macymiller8743]

I’m tempted to do this with an even chunkier yarn (possibly the one from Michaels) and see how large it can get😀😅

[@mishrawal8571]

and follow the jumbo pattern instead!

[@deeramos9416]

I just started this craft . Your video is great help

[@crisdias1616]

Amo seus trabalhos são lindos !!! Gostaria que mais vídeos tenham também a legenda de tradução para o português !!!

[@kathleenhaile7215]

This is one of the absolute best instructions thank you 🥰

[@annabellearango6397]

Been here for almost 2 hours and finally got it

[@manaponmayatangtarkoolwong463]

Love it! I would’ve love to see the snail pls

[@KINGTHEYORKIE]

I wish she would explain more once she gets to the marker. I get confused right there! I do not Understand do I stop right at the marker or do I put a stitch where the marker is

[@alixcee]

T H I S T U R T L E I S B E A U T I F U L !!! I made the smaller one, and then I made the bigger turtle! Your pattern is beautiful and simple to follow! I actually made this with green shell, but I plan to do this with orange shell!

[@cherryboba1565]

hi how long did it take for u to finish the small one? ♥️

[@alixcee]

@@cherryboba1565 about 2-3 hours

[@deeru9919]

How did u make it bigger. I uses 4.25 hook and came out small. I am using bernat velvet bulky 5. Did u use bulkier and bigger hook?

[@mahekmohan2331]

you are so good and this project really boosted my confidence in crochet you should be noticed more

[@mskissmyazzify]

Went to Walmart to get yarn got chunky. Didn't know how huge it would be. The first part (head) is as wide as my coffee table. Sooooooo I'm rushing my bf to go to the craft store with me to buy probably $100s of dollars of chunky yarn lol 😅. But it's gonna be sooo amazing!

[@shelbyjohnston-fitch5943]

What is an increase ? Twice in same stitch ? Do you do a single in stitch A then in stitch B do 2?

[@StumblinGuy]

I've got the head and front feet done so far. Loving the design!!

[@fabiennebartolo292]

j adore tous vos tutos , ils sont magnifiques ... un grand merci à vous

[@Leahleahleah4507]

My yarn is chunkier so i accidentally made him huge but I'm making hin weighted and i love him so much

[@_mvdawg]

I used an 8mm yarn and it ended up a little smaller (I think) but honestly it's the perfect size for me (still working on the head)

[@BodegaCiggarat]

This is great but where is part two I just have a head, fins and top of a shell.

[@BodegaCiggarat]

Omg I re read part two comments soon. Ok notifications.....be reliable

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

It’s already up! Just updated the description 😊

[@BodegaCiggarat]

@@RoseandLilyAmigurumi literally couldn't have been better timing I just finished everything in this tutorial. Thank you! ❤

[@tuna_fish.]

when I crochet it curls and isn't flat like yours, how do i fix that?

[@thecraftymamadvo]

I also have the same problem

[@erinxox8828]

That’s the problem I’m having with the front legs. I followed it exactly but it keeps on curling and going into a ball shape

[@RAWRR617]

happened to me, i put it under a heavy book for a few days and it worked

[@Cadencecrochets]

Love it!! Making one right now!❤

[@tianastampalija4128]

How many skeins of yarn/meters did it take to make the turtle ie for the shell and then fins etc! Want to make this for my sister in law

[@shannonbevis3213]

Loves this tutorial.

[@qalbuha4983]

Thank you very much, this is very helpful.. Greetings from me from Indonesia 🇮🇩

[@thecraftymamadvo]

Hello. Im crocheting this right now and im already using a 5mm hook but the magic circle just keeps curling :( i also tried it w 6mm hook but still to no avail. Do you have suggestions how to avoid curling without adding the stitches?

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

Depending on your yarn, you might need to try an even bigger hook. Slight curling isn’t a problem with this pattern, however. It should still work out 🙂

[@anjalidogra8900]

Thanks for teaching!

[@Teodora.44]

Omgg is sooo cute I love it!! I'm a crocheter too and I would be glad if you tell me what tipe of yarn you use

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

Hobbii baby snuggle 🥰

[@aimsanimations2905]

With the head, mine just looked flat and wasn't round like yours at all. I followed the directions, what do I do?

[@lindsaywilliams7308]

How do you keep your work from puckering and keep it flat? I’m using the same yarn type and size and hook but mine won’t stay flat it looks like a bowl. 😢

[@rspooky4585]

I noticed your note that safety eyes are not recommended for children under 3. I want to make this for my newborn nephew. What alternative would you suggest? Thank you!

[@alvarezchk]

I would suggest using embroidery floss for the eyes, Happy crafting 😊🫶🏻

[@rspooky4585]

@@alvarezchk Thank you! ❤️

[@caitlintipton9974]

You did have video for a small one and I can’t find it now. Do you still have one?

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

Yes! It’s my second ever video. Scroll all the way down 😂

[@SofiaPerez-eg4mj]

This is my first time using thicker yarn and I’m having trouble telling where the V’s are and what I’m doing 😅 does anyone have any tricks?? Should I make it tighter or looser or can I just not see 😅

[@minnehebb1436]

This tutorial is so beautiful I like it so I made this to ❤️☺️🐢

[@kimberlybabcock7154]

Is it normal for the turtle head to be floppy and not stand up by itself? Every time I make a turtle the head after connected is still floppy. What am I doing wrong?

[@Lucainit123]

When you see your head on, it leaves a gap, so before your head is fully closed add more stuffing

[@julisareyes5725]

Is the legs,tail and head the same size as the first video or how much more rows do I add for each?

[@nicolejerram7027]

Im trying to pull the tail on the magic circle and the wool keeps snapping, im using the same wool as yourself. Do you have any advice for me?

[@MriVmedia]

Love the way this pattern came out for me but what i dont get is why is mine making a turtle double the size of your one with the same hook and yarn thickens? not complaining haha just ends up huge and then i look back at the video and think heeyyyy hold on a minute :D

[@ishakak147]

So I have just finished 11 rows and the head appears to be 1/3 of the whole head, while yours at the same row is about 3/4 of the whole head. What did I do wrong? I spent almost 3 hours until this part... When you increase you go through whole loop? Or just front loop? Does it even matter? I think that I just put my hook in the wrong chains when going in rows...

[@wintervear1416]

How many grams did you use for this size of turtle

[@jerrianngordillo-marty161]

He’s so cute 🥰

[@asianithinkyes]

Do you have a video to make the smaller version? 😊

[@siljeyt3690]

Which size are the safety eyes?

[@OhmiyaStorm]

Is there a reason you need to pull the tail through one of the front legs I stead of just flipping it over? They will still be symmetrical by just..turning it over. Genuinely asking in case I am missing a specific reason!!

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

So the last row of stitches both face the same direction 🙂

[@miraclehurley3029]

What does increase 6 time mean? Also thank you so much for this tutorial. You are a wonderful teacher!

[@Mimi-yz5cb]

It means put 2 single crochets in each stitch, 6 times. Hope this helps! :)

[@42bhavanapintojames48]

I didn't get that

[@meemj7030]

I know this is reply is a bit late but I was trying to figure that out too. So basically if she says 2 SC, inc times 6 It means you crochet one single crochet into the first chain, then one single crochet into the next chain, then when you get to the third chain you crochet 2 single crochet in the same chain. And then that cycle goes on, meaning you will crochet one single crochet again in the fourth chain, one single crochet in the fifth chain, then 2 single crochet in the sixth chain I hope this helps!

[@oanamateescu7]

Can you please make a tutorial of how to crochet a gouldian finch? I would like to make such a toy. 🥰

[@artymaze]

Loved it Thank you x

[@shirfridman1823]

I don't understand where I need to push the hook at every new round :( it gets so messy and every time I just start over

[@jannyg1994]

You end every round with a slip knot. Attach it to the very first stitch you made then chain one. Attach a stitch marker to the first stitch right after you make it so you can keep track of it. This yarn is very thick so it can be confusing if you don’t use a stitch marker.

[@jannyg1994]

If you’re still having trouble watch this tutorial. He’s very good at explaining to beginners, it’s how I learned. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ3WdmCMlLJni8U

[@TheThreeScoots]

Great pattern! What size of safety eyes did you use?

[@kitana233]

😭I think i did it wrong the head is HUGE IT CAN FIT OVER MY HEAD...sus bc it has the same amounts of stitches and it's the same size wool. Either her hands are massive or im really tiny 😭

[@AliciaAndersson]

You used a different yarn or hook

[@Val-em2bt]

Holaa, podrías hacer un tutorial de una tortuga que tiene el cuello alargado y no pegado al cuerpo? 😅

[@pavitarsohal5677]

is it normal for the head part of the turtle to start curling inwards?

[@ananasihha]

Hello, please tell me where you bought the yarn and numbers of flowers, please I really need 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💗💗💗💗

[@jamietatro724]

So do you do like 3 sc then a inc then 3 sc and so on or start 3 sc then the rest inc

[@xia2830]

Why the written version isn't free if the pattern is free ? I don't understand if it the same pattern in the video .. (it's serious question, not for criticize) 😅

[@doreencox4973]

How do you share a picture on here? I made one of these turtles and wanted to share it.

[@hazelmartinez7863]

Awesome 😍 Do you have a video of how atach the eyes?

[@tuba5025]

Are you Australian i love your accent 😍 and thank you for the tutorial 💗

[@aenorjeminmoreau2189]

Thankyou for this great tutorial! I have a question: is it normal that my shell before stoping increasing is kind of flat? Because I have the impression that I made it correctly but it's slightly different than the video🥲

[@tundevirag755]

Hi! 6 single crochet in a magic ring followed by 6 increases in every round should give you a flat circle! That is exactly how you make a coaster. I don't know why in the video it starts rounding, but it seems you did follow the tutorial correctly.

[@nikolamodrackova8123]

what number is the body color?

[@suevanderriet1672]

Very good

[@user-ri9ho1by9k]

How many yarn do you need. I have velvet yarn 5mm

[@minnehebb1436]

I hope there comes more videos 😊

[@WarrenStClair]

I have a lot of 4 weight yarn, can that be substituted for what you used ? What, if any, adjustments should I make? Thanks for your time in advance. I really like this pattern.

[@theredrenard]

I think the only adjustment you need would be to change your hook size in accordance with whatever kind of yarn you use!

[@liannemansfield2703]

Have you used a thicker yarn for the bigger turtle? X

[@cherryboba1565]

hi can someone please let me know how long this will take on average?

[@valkadragonheart]

can you make a even bigger turtle?? im in love with these turtles.

[@bi-indigenous-baker5865]

To do that, you can use the pattern for the larger turtle, and use a bigger yarn and hook.

[@mishrawal8571]

hey ik it’s late but there’s a jumbo pattern

[@ela2132]

how may grams of polyfill did you use? :)

[@serpentsanctuary7577]

What’s the name of this wool I live in SA and want to find an alternative

[@marcelinapalmer2798]

I don't understand how to do round three i slowed it down and it was even worse. Could someone please explain it?

[@SOL-en7gh]

For round three, you have to do SC then increase repeatedly. Like this, SC + Increase + SC + Increase + SC + Increase...and so on until the end. There must be 18 stitches in round three.

[@kadejahrice]

Does anyone know how many grams of yarn she used?

[@mahekshaikh7826]

How much meter or yard of yarn needed?

[@Stella-nj5ht]

May I ask if the yarn you used is velvet? Thank you!

[@Lolisch-br4yh]

I have a question.. on the back legs how do you sc them together since it's an uneven number? 😅 which stitch do I skip?😅 Thank you in advance for any help🧡

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

You can skip either the first or last one 🙂

[@armaniousd184]

Why did you make the turtle's head big?

[@RoseandLilyAmigurumi]

Hi! I preferred this size on the larger turtle. But if you prefer the head smaller, you can do one fewer rounds of increases on the head ☺️ So go up to 30 stitches instead of 36. Hope this helps!

[@Sarah-ce5et]

What is a increase?

[@gail3606d]

Does it have to be fluffy yarn

[@7ievux7]

Great tutorial! Easy to follow, simple instructions, turned out great. 👍
