Sea creatures

My beginner friendly crochet sea otter pattern is designed to be a fast amigurumi project that is lifelike, fun and a little bit different. You’ll find full instructions with the written pattern, along with tips on how to join your own sea otter together fuss free. I have also included plenty of photographs of the construction process to help it all go smoothly.

Please note this is a crochet pattern only, not a physical product. After you’ve checked out, click the download button to receive the PDF file. (This pattern is written in US crochet terms.)

To crochet your sea otter you will also need a 4mm crochet hook, 100g of brown aran weight yarn, 50g of cream aran weight yarn and a few strands of gray yarn for the nose. You will also need a pair of 12mm safety eyes, some toy stuffing and a yarn needle. Some stitch markers won’t go amiss either!

You can substitute in any aran weighted oaty toned yarn for the face and brown yarn for the body if you can’t get hold of these brands in your area. Your toy won’t be an identical crochet sea otter to mine, but that only adds to the creativity!

If you’ve got any questions whilst you are crocheting your sea otter, just message me at the email address given on the final page of the pattern. I am always happy to help!
