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 🕊

[@TornadoKid0955]

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

[@thedailystory2950]

I'm recovering from surgery and this is the cutest stuffie to make to take my mind off the pain. Thank you ❤️

[@neanders82]

I made this for a friend and she absolutely loved it!! Thank you!!

[@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😂)

[@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!

[@misszany2530]

16:56 book mark for beginning of shell. (I always make it first)

[@yamilethayala-l2t]

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!

[@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😃.

[@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!!

[@fahmyhamed5780]

انا سعيييده جداااا بهذا لقد طبقت السلحفاة الصغيره و سأطبق هذه ايضا لأنني احببتها حقا❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@shirinsultana1899]

Thank you so much . I am going to do one for my daughter. And it will be my first work ! ❤️❤️

[@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

[@santtumankki9221]

Me too😬

[@madzia_to_ja_]

I'm from Poland and I don't speak English very well, but I understand your tutorials very well 😊😊

[@Issibissi]

Ajm 8, end i undarstand it to ;0

[@electriccreeper608]

I needed this cause I had thin chenille yarn so I can make the normal size! I was about to use ur original one and make more sc rounds 💀

[@estrellamejia1500]

Could you make a sea otter tutorial I think it would be sooo cute. Ps I love your videos ❤️

[@kathleenhaile7215]

This is one of the absolute best instructions thank you 🥰

[@Cadencecrochets]

Love it!! Making one right now!❤

[@annabellearango6397]

Been here for almost 2 hours and finally got it

[@mahekmohan2331]

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

[@annettwitte1471]

Hi love your stuff but how think is your yarn like what size crochet hook do I use?❤

[@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!

[@gamingkitty2064]

5:05 nobody press it this is just a reminder for me.

[@deeramos9416]

I just started this craft . Your video is great help

[@StumblinGuy]

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

[@manaponmayatangtarkoolwong463]

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

[@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!

[@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?

[@fabiennebartolo292]

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

[@crisdias1616]

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

[@vilinity]

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)

[@shannonbevis3213]

Loves this tutorial.

[@anjalidogra8900]

Thanks for teaching!

[@HomeRyy]

Merhaba. 👋 Kaç tane beyaz ip kullandınız?

[@jerrianngordillo-marty161]

He’s so cute 🥰

[@carolynwilliams1831]

Where can I get the pattern or video for the small one

[@fia76264]

at her etsy shop!

[@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

[@asianithinkyes]

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

[@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

[@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?

[@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! ❤

[@vanshitamalviya7603]

Hey it is so cute!! I wanna make one too so i wanna know How much gram is there in each skein?

[@wheretheheartlessgo]

When you’re making the shell, do you have to use the same gauge yarn? I’ve got an 8 and 10 right now on hand.

[@hornechild]

Do we have to slip stitch at the end of each round?

[@tuba5025]

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

[@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

[@Val-em2bt]

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

[@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

[@caitlinscozycorner]

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 😂

[@shelbyjohnston-fitch5943]

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

[@YanilethMendez-Maria]

Twice un the same stitch ❤

[@7ievux7]

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

[@gerryvanGilsBouwmans]

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

[@minnehebb1436]

I hope there comes more videos 😊

[@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 😅

[@biotecR]

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

[@Leahleahleah4507]

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

[@dragonfractal6361]

What did you use for the weight?

[@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

[@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

[@mahekshaikh7826]

How much meter or yard of yarn needed?

[@oanamateescu7]

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

[@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.

[@gail3606d]

Does it have to be fluffy yarn

[@julisareyes5725]

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

[@Sarah-ce5et]

What is a increase?

[@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?

[@suevanderriet1672]

Very good

[@haileighdavis8312]

When you do an increase are you going through both loops or just the front?

[@oliviahoffman2974]

Both

[@Sara-ex6ih]

Thank you Can u make a tutorial for puppy dog 🐶

[@TheThreeScoots]

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

[@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

[@liannemansfield2703]

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

[@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. 😢

[@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 🙂

[@wintervear1416]

How many grams did you use for this size of turtle

[@nikolamodrackova8123]

what number is the body color?

[@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 🙂

[@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!

[@doreencox4973]

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

[@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! ❤️

[@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!

[@ela2132]

how may grams of polyfill did you use? :)

[@pavitarsohal5677]

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

[@Stella-nj5ht]

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

[@kadejahrice]

Does anyone know how many grams of yarn she used?

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