Here is the crochet sea turtle pattern from dear Elena. This plush crochet sea turtle has a diameter of about 30 cm. To make such a large crochet sea turtle, Elena uses Alize Velluto plush yarn and a 5 mm crochet hook. We start making the crochet sea turtle with the shell first. Then we make the head and claws. Then we make the belly and add the final touches. Choose the colors of your favorite plush yarns and complete this cute crochet sea turtle. Many thanks to Elena.
