Sandy the Seal Crochet Amigurumi Pattern (English)

Sandy the seal loves living in the seas around Pembrokeshire with her new pup, teaching pup to fish and how to pinch fish from the local fishermen - if you’re ever on a boat trip in the area keep an eye out, they might pop up to say hello (they’re quite nosey). When evening comes it's back to the quiet coves and beaches to play and rest. She is 14 inches long and her pup is 8 inches long (when made with the recommended materials).

The 12 page pattern is intermediate skill level and is available in US terminology. It is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures for step by step making and assembly. There are also picture instructions for back loop only and adding whiskers.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern:
