This is a version “2.0” of my original Mermaid Tail design, updated to include larger sizes, so anyone can have a mermaid adventure! The sizes given enable anyone, from a toddler to an adult, to have their own tail to wear. If you need a smaller size, check out my tail sized for infants - http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/photoshoot-worthy....

Here’s how this is different from my free pattern:

tail is worked circularly
it uses only crochet

To make the tail similarly to what I’ve shown you’ll need two colors - contrast A and contrast B. I ended up using one Caron One Pound, and 3 Craft Smart Value skeins)

Errata 1:
For adult size, instead of ch 40 to start, ch 36.
