SUPPLIES

ABBREVIATIONS

  • sl st – slip stitch
  • ch – chain stitch
  • hdc – half double crochet
  • dc – double crochet
  • sc2tog – single crochet decrease: Insert hook into front loop of next st. Without yarning over, insert hook into front loop of next st. Yarn over. Pull through 2 loops on hook. Yarn over, pull through remaining loop on hook.

PATTERN NOTES

  • The Whale Top uses Denim Mist – Color A. The Whale Bottom uses Silver Blue – Color B. Make 4 Whale Fins, two using Color A, and two using Color B.
  • Gauge = 18 stitches and 18 rows in 4 inches.
  • Overall size = approximately 17 inches long and 13 inches from fin tip to fin tip.
  • Turn at the end of each Row.
  • Most rows are the reflected over the halfway point. In other words, they are palindromes! The exceptions are the single decrease stitches.
  • Anytime it’s written just X sc, it means work 1 sc in each of next X stitches. Eg. “6 sc, 2 sc in next 2 st, 6 sc” = Work 1 sc in each of next 6 st, 2 sc in each of next 2 st, 1 sc in each of next 6 st.
  • Rows 20-21: the last stitch is the 2nd chain of the ‘Ch 2’ from the previous row.
  • “Row 37: Ch 1. Work 1 sc, 1 sc2tog, 20 sc, 1 sc2tog, 20 sc, 1 sc2tog, 1 sc. (45)” = Work 1 sc in first st. Work the next 2 st together into 1 sc. Work 1 sc in each of the next 20 st. Work the next 2 st together into 1 sc. Work 1 sc in each of the next 20 st. Work the next 2 st together into 1 sc. Work 1 sc in the last st. => You start with 48 stitches in the previous row, and you are decreasing into 45 stitches.
  • Row 49 is where the work is folded to create the fin. The previous row is 38 stitches. Fold your work in half, so there’s 19 stitches in each half. Work 1 sc in first st. Work the next 2 st together into 1 sc. Work 1 sc in each of next 12 st (all as normal). With the work folded in half, you should see 4 stitches left before the turn. Work 1 sc in each of those next 4 st, but work through all 4 loops to secure them together. You’ve now worked through 19 stitches and it looks like it’s the end of the “row”. Ch 1 and turn. Work 1 sl st into each of the previous 4 sc that you created. Now, there should be 15 unworked stitches left in the row. Work 1 sc in each of 12 st (normal 2 loops only at this point). Work the next 2 st together into 1 sc. Work 1 sc in last st.
  • Rows 74-76: Keep your slip stitches fairly loose so that it’s easier to work a new row of slip stitches into slip stitches. Otherwise, these 4 stitches get a bit tricky. This is to create the little divot in the tail.
  • Whale assembly uses a combination of slip stitches and the mattress stitch.
  • Below instructions are to attach the fins by working them directly into the mattress stitch while joining the whale together. Alternatively, attach the fins by sewing them directly onto the finished whale.

ASSEMBLY

  • Attach safety eyes at approx. Row 21 on Whale Top, about 3 stitches from either edge.
  • On both Whale Top and Whale Bottom, fold Row 1 in half, sew together to form nose.

Fins:

  • Hold a Color A fin and a Color B fin together, edges lined up. Using Color A, insert hook through both fins (4 loops together), and attach yarn. Work slip stitches evenly around the fin. Join to first sl st.
  • Repeat for the other set of fins, making sure they are lined up opposite the first set so that the straight edge of both fins face forward.

Whale Body:

  • Holding the Top and Bottom tail fins together, attach yarn at Row 66 (right side while facing the whale). Work slip stitches evenly around the tail fin until Row 66, left side.
  • Cut the yarn, leaving approximately a 4 ft tail for joining the whale body.
  • Pull yarn through last slip stitch at Row 66 to secure.
  • Use the mattress stitch to join the Whale Top to Whale Bottom, edge to edge, working from the left side while facing the whale, around the front and down the right side of the whale. Make sure to line up the rows on both pieces. Having stitch markers in place helps a lot!
  • At Row 28 of left side, work the mattress stitch through the left fin to sew the fin directly into the body. Fin should be attached from approximately Row 28 to Row 24.
  • Continue joining the Whale Top to Whale Bottom around the front of the whale.
  • At Row 24 of right side, work the mattress stitch through the right fin to sew the fin directly into the body. Fin should be attached from approximately Row 24 to Row 28.
  • Continue joining the Whale Top to Whale Bottom, stopping to stuff the whale, until Row 66.
  • Sew into where the yarn was first attached. Secure tightly and fasten off. Weave in ends.

All done!
