If you love turtles, cherry pie, and kawaii food-themed animals, then this is the PERFECT pattern for you! Also, it’s a super easy pattern that doesn’t take long to make. I made this cutie for Pi Day this year, but you could also crochet it for lots of different occasions – as a gift for a birthday or holiday, for cute decor as a plushie in your bedroom or office, etc.! This sweet critter is sure to please animal lovers and dessert lovers alike!

This pattern calls for medium weight or super bulky yarn, a size 3.25 mm or 8 mm crochet hook, fiberfill stuffing, a yarn needle, scissors, and plastic safety eyes for the small size. Stitches used include the single crochet, single crochet decrease, half double crochet, and slip stitch. It would also be helpful to know how to crochet in the round. The overall difficulty level for this pattern is Easy.

Finished measurements are:
Small Size: about 7 inches in length from head to tail
Large Size: about 13 inches from head to tail 

Exact gauge is not essential to this project.

Happy Crocheting!
