Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Medium Krakens Set 2 (printable PDF-file / 125 pages)

Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this pattern is for Medium Krakens! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.

This pattern comes with instructions to make Medium Sized Krakens!! The pattern comes with instructions for THREE unique body options that can be made with a simple bottom, bobble bottom, or beaded bottom, optional bobble or beaded suckers for the extra long tentacles, and one eyelid option!! Everything you see in the photos is included in the pattern. All instructions are carefully depicted with words and photos! This pattern features clear step by step instruction with a lot of row-by-row photos. The gauge is not crucial to the pattern as long as the stitches are tight enough to hold stuffing.

This pattern is notable because the body options have built-in shaping that mimics fins, without any extra sewing! This is a low-sew, no-sew pattern.

This pattern is a total of 125 pages containing a full set of written instructions with photographic illustrations, and there are video tutorials for particular steps and stitches available on my YouTube channel. This Pattern consists of ONE PDF File, and the last 49 pages are Text-Only, Printer-Friendly instructions, but I strongly recommend you still refer to the photographic illustrations throughout the pattern if you have any questions.

This pattern is available in English.
