Crocodile crochet pattern

This measures about 6cm tall and 26cm in length, when made with double knit yarn or about 10cm tall and 34cm in length, when made with aran yarn.
When I make this Crocodile I use the Khaki shade of Stylecraft yarn, but any green colour would work well.

For the smaller size animal:
3.5 mm hook (US E hook)
Approx 30g green double knit weight yarn
Small amount of black and white yarn for details
