I just finished it! The very first thing i ever crocheted and it looks pretty good 😍. I definitely made some mistakes in increasing and decreasing but in the whole everything worked out great and its a pretty easy tutorial to follow. Thanks! I am definitely going to make more whales soon ❤

[@bee-crafty]

I am a beginner in making amigurumis and was looking for tutorials to help me get started. I decided to try to make a whale and this pattern was very easy to follow! Thank you! 😄

[@danielleldesigns]

Very good and easy to follow.i loved it I made 2 of them in 2 days

[@danielleldesigns]

Glad you liked it 🤗

[@vanessa-bk1qk]

It looks like such fun pattern! I'm a beginner (like never did a project or anything) and the beginning with that ring was a little too fast for me. I had to slow the video down to get it. From then on I think it was fairly understandable but I was just unlucky to have the wrong yarn. I have some kind of fluff yarn too but not the kind like in the video. With my yarn, after the first row of 8 stitches, I couldn't see anything. I had no real clue where the next entry should be. I think, if I want to try this again, I need different yarn. I ended up with a pretty fluffy not elastical scrunchy. Tried to do a whale but ended up with a scrunchy, Ig that's better than nothing😭

[@donnapeat5795]

thank you so much was able to complete this nd may granddaughter loves it

[@danielleldesigns]

Great job!🤗

[@eniraknltv6811]

Thank you I just did it 😍

[@danielleldesigns]

👍🏻👏🏻😊

[@catgang12]

Absolutely great video, but the problem i have is in round 12, when i did it in the back loop you can see that it changed color there, its not as smootb as in your video. Can anyone help?

[@alixmoulaert6069]

thanks for the tutorial

[@danielleldesigns]

You're welcome❤️

[@pleunvaniersel9976]

Hi I’ve literally never crocheted before, do you think this tutorial is fit for a beginner (like as beginner as it can get)? Or would this already be too difficult and should I start simpler? :)

[@kortnidhal17]

I cannot see my stitches with velvet yarn, any advice please?😢

[@MConPaws]

I am french so it's a bit difficult to traduct... But I am going to do this because it's look cute ❤

[@danielleldesigns]

🥰

[@MConPaws]

​​Oh and what does dc,slst means?​@@danielleldesigns

[@danielleldesigns]

Dc - double crochet slst - slip stitch

[@katrinamalcolm8727]

Hi quick question, row 12 says back loop only, is that the only row for back loop or for the rest of the pattern? And is it back loop only when you decrease? Thank you so much.

[@danielleldesigns]

Back loop on R12 only, Also back loop on decrease.😊

[@katrinamalcolm8727]

@@danielleldesigns awesome. Now i see. I never made a whale before but this looks so easy. Your a great instructor. Thank you so much for responding. ❤👍☺

[@minecraftkitty401]

Quick question, how many rows do i have to crochet when i do 6R-11R. Do the 11R count? Or schould i stop when i did 5 rows of SC ?

[@danielleldesigns]

R6-r11 = 6 rows

[@filmedbykelly]

love but mines tured out like 2x bigger cuz I the size super bulky yarn but I love it so much!!!

[@_M3la_]

Is it jus a ball or its slightly flat at the bottom? Please answer becouse i wanna make a kinda flat ball and i dont have any tutorial on how to do that

[@danielleldesigns]

It's slightly flat at the bottom, and don't over stuff.

[@lunardrop6518]

Hey so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but when I follow the instructions it for,s more of a tube instead of what you have could you or someone explain?

[@danielleldesigns]

Hi, if you don't mind, please send the pic of your work to my IG?

[@danielaruzek1234]

Thank you for tutorial! I was my first try to make animal and it came out great! I have trouble with fins and tail. I didnt understand the technic but somehow I finish it. But its so small, compare to body. On second attempt I tried different pattern for fins and tail. Fins 1st Front loop - 2 chains 2nd front loop - 3 double crochet 3rd front loop - slipknot to body. Does it make sence to you? ( Sorry, i am not sure how to write it properly) Thank you for pattern!❤

[@mennakh33]

Hi!! Quick question, if I want to make the whale a bit bigger, do I use a bigger hook?

[@danielleldesigns]

Bigger yarn and bigger hook

[@LIlyMason-yf2ew]

Or double the stitches!

[@roxaneponsart1589]

4:33 Just a reminder also I finished row 11 I was about to change the yarn

[@ddxjournalx3431]

Hey, it’s really cute ! I was only wondering if crocheting in the back loops only in the row 12 was for a special reason? Thanks !

[@danielleldesigns]

It's because to make the bottom part more flat. Thank you😊

[@ddxjournalx3431]

Oh okay thank you so much!!

[@aaliahmacabenta2929]

can i use milk cotton yarn instead of chunky yarn?

[@danielleldesigns]

Yes you can

[@Ryamemimi]

can we do it with a 4mm thread ?

[@danielleldesigns]

Yes you can😊

[@user-lr4oh1yi2d]

Can u make a dolphin??;

[@user-sf7od9zd2b]

My crochet is curling up and I have no idea why. That's why I can't do it😢

[@ashtonmorris4035]

Try using less tension as you crochet and stop at the end of each row and stretch it out. Mine does the same thing, and I've learned that using a bigger hook and not pulling my yarn as tight has really helped.

[@raayamaryamkhan78]

Can you please tell me the hook number?

[@danielleldesigns]

6mm hook

[@Alexis_Wong]

Do you give me permission to possibly sell these?

[@danielleldesigns]

You may sell the finished product.

[@Alexis_Wong]

Thank you! If I do sell them I will tag you for sure
