So what makes this pattern worth paying for, when you can get a free one elsewhere?

  1. New Scale stitch which is easier than a Crocodile stitch and looks more like fish scales!
  2. The tail fin is worked from base to tip as part of the tail, no sewing required!
  3. I have added calculations to adjust this pattern to fit any size from toddler to football player (for those of you who have the will to try it!)

The photo tutorial gives extra help in understanding the instructions and the results are great. With worsted weight yarn from your stash or purchased special colours you are sure to come up with a beautiful finished product that’s just your style.

Enjoy!
