Assembly
-Stack the three Caudal Fins and stitch them together at the center point.
-Next pinch the opening at the back of the body shut vertically. Line up the point of the fins with the vertical
opening, sandwich the fins between the two body openings and stitch thru all the layers to secure.
-Stitch the Dorsal Fin to the top of the body, the shorter end should face forward.
-Stitch the Pectoral Fins to the sides of the body in line with the Dorsal Fin and below the eyes.
The green fish was made using the standard single crochet stitch. The pink fish was made using the yarn under
method. You can see the size difference. The yarn under method produces a tighter stitch and therefore a slightly
smaller toy. There are many YouTube videos you can look up to learn the yarn under single crochet stitch.
