The Mermaid Tail Crochet Pattern is perfect for little girls wanting to cuddle up as a mythical, magical creature and this will definitely bring a smile to your face. In other words, if you’re looking for a fun way to keep your little mermaid’s legs and toes warm while cuddled up her favorite TV show or book, you’re in the right place.
This pattern is made in two pieces. Namely, the front and back and then stitched up the sides and bottom like a sleeping bag. The bulky weight Lion Brand Homespun New Look yarn means that it works up REALLY quickly if you have little angels with no patience. Additionally, these are also ideal for gifts. As your little mermaid grows, additional rows can be added to the top if necessary.
The pattern is a simple design of the solid shell stitch that looks a lot like the scales of a mermaid, and the single crochet stitch with strategic decreasing that creates the tail shape. Also, the pattern is very easy to read and explains the stitches very well.
This surprisingly simple crochet mermaid tail blanket or cocoon is a quick surprise for any little girl that love to pretend to be fairies, princesses and mermaids.
Many Mermaid colors available:
This mermaid tail blanket only uses 5 cakes of Homespun New Look in the color Whirlpool (pictured here) but it would also look AMAZING in any of the other color variations, depending on your little mermaid’s favorite color.
