THIS PATTERN DOES NOT COUNT STITCHES. I recommend using a stitch marker at the end of each round. This is the exact pattern I used in the photo with no edits!! I understand the mTh for the tails do not add up, you may use 6sc mr if you wish. Thanks you! This whale is inspired by Stitch By Fay. It is a relatively similar pattern, however it is not no-sew. All you need to see on is the tail. I would recommend white for the color of the belly but it's completely customizable! Have fun crocheting! This pattern is adaptable to chunky yarn and regular whole or acrylic yarn, the photos show what the whale looks like with dollar store chenille yarn and Loops&Threads Sweet Snuggles bulky yarn.
