ABOUT THE PATTERN

The pattern comes as one PDF file with detailed instructions on everything you need to know to crochet three color types of nudibranchs based on real-life color variations (dotted resembling the Goniobranchus splendidus, pink resembling the Hypselodoris apolegema & striped resembling the Chromodoris annae). It can be followed step-by-step and is accompanied by photos for all the trickier parts.

Next to the written pattern, the PDF includes a list of all needed materials & tools, a table of all stitch types/abbreviations required for this pattern, and also a tutorial section with detailed explanations for some of the more unusual used stitches and techniques.

If you find any typos, mistakes, or unclear parts, please let me know and I’ll do my best to correct & update the pattern!
