Materials and tools.
• For big fish is used Alize Cotton Gold 180 yards (165 meters)/50 grams
(1.76 Oz). This is just 50% cotton, for the best quality I recommend 100%.
For small fish is used Pelican Vita Cotton 360 yards (329 meters)/50 grams
(1.76 Oz), 100% cotton threads.
• 3 colors on example: white, yellow or orange and black.
• IMPORTANT. The pattern is suitable only for crocheting in few colors!
• Hook 1,25 mm or 1,5 mm depends on mark hook and style of your
crocheting. I used Clover 1,5 mm and 0, 9 mm for small fish. Choose the
hook for yourself. Crocheting should be very, very tight.
• Filler holofiber for stuffing.
• Tweezers and wood sticks for stuffing.
• Proof liners and/or soft pastel for the body and silver acrylic paints for the
eyes. The painting with soft pastel is very perfect for 100% cotton threads. I
don’t recommend paint on the 100% acryl yarn, and don’t recommend
acryl yarn exactly.
• Acrylic varnish for use with soft pastel, and for priming, also I am using PVA
glue for priming. In this case I used PVA glue and varnish also.
• Brushes for painting by pastel, different sizes. Black, orange, yellow, brown, beige, blue waterproof liners, can be replaced by pastel. You can use only soft pastel or only liners. But for the black stripes I recommend high quality black proof liner. Look instructions for decorating first.
• White and black polymer clay or suitable colors for making the eyes. You
can take only white color and tint it or you can take original others colors of
polymer clay. I used white and black colors in this case.
• And universal invisible glue, that not leave traces. I recommend Moment
Crystal by Henkel.
• For desired use varnish for the sculpt details. I use UV gel polish and UV
lamp.
• IMPORTANT. Please, read whole pattern till the end for choose your way
making this toy.
