Olwyn the little orca spends her days cruising round with her large pod, saving her energy for hunting time. She’s always hungry and keeping an eye out for a tasty squid. She is 16 inches long (when made with the recommended materials).

The 9 page pattern is intermediate skill level and is available in US and UK terminology – both versions will be available for you to download. It is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures for step by step making and assembly.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern:
US Terminology - slip stitch, magic ring, single crochet, double crochet, increase, decrease (sc2tog)
UK Terminology - slip stitch, magic ring, double crochet, treble, increase, decrease (dc2tog)

Recommended Materials:

• Yarn: I have made Olwyn using Scheepjes Cahlista (Aran/worsted weight yarn) - colour and weight details in pattern
• Hook: 3.5mm (E) crochet hook
• Stuffing: I use polyester filling
• Safety eyes: I have used 12mm plastic safety eyes, but you can embroider the eyes on if you prefer
• Yarn needle
• Pins
• (A stitch marker and row counter are useful)
