Mermaid Friends
The instructions allow for the ability to attach the tail to either the right or left side so that they can mirror each other.
The pattern is classified as Intermediate Level.
Jeweler’s Wire is used in their arms to make them pose-able and Poly-Pellets are used to weigh them down and help with balance.
They measures approx. 6” tall. These measurements are when Fingering Weight yarn (1) and a 2 mm hook are used. Any weight yarn and correlating hook size could be substituted as long as all colors of yarn are the same size.
