Notes

Great design.
Very specific contouring.Going down a hook, so it’s a little smaller.

Used a dark yarn, so it was tricky to see the stitches.
Count, count and count some more.
I still managed to mess up, but made corrections so it would look right.

Speaking of looking right, I didn’t get the front flippers quite right, I believe it was because I tend to over stuff things. I wanted the flippers to be firm upon being played with.
