Instructions Overview

Blanket
  • Ripple Pattern: Worked in treble crochet with a striped ripple effect.
  • Stripe Sequence: The blanket follows a set color sequence alternating between all the colors (A to E) to create the wave design.
  • Construction: The blanket is crocheted flat in rows, and the ripple effect is created by increasing and decreasing stitches at regular intervals.
Mermaid Doll
  • Head and Body: The mermaid is crocheted in the round in the amigurumi style, starting from a magic ring for the head and shaping through increases and decreases.
  • Tail: The mermaid’s tail fin is shaped by increasing stitches, and the body transitions into the tail, using a color change for definition.
  • Hair: Made separately using color E and sewn onto the head, styled in curls.
  • Finishing: The mermaid is stuffed with polyester filling, and facial details are embroidered with red thread.
