Crochet Mermaid Outfit

Thanks to Amanda for submitting this picture.
She really brings this outfit to life.






This piece consisted of many pieces that were eventually stitched together. Per customer request the cocoon was solid crocodile stitch. A knit waistband was added along with an elastic core for a comfortable fit. The headband was knit for maximum stretch with a starfish adornment.

    1. Julia there actually is no pattern for the tail. I stitched it without a pattern and I have found trying to write up the pattern to be a tad difficult because of the complexity of the crocodile stitch. I will say though that I stitched the cocoon in two separate sides and then sewed them together if that helps. There is a pattern for the seashells that I have written up if you are interested in that.

    1. Apologies on the delay on getting back to you Deirdre. I currently have this pattern being tested and should have it available in the next month in my Etsy and Ravelry shops. The seashells pattern is over on this page http://thedailystitches.blogspot.com/2014/10/seashell.html .

      Hope this helps. :)
