So what will you find in this cute crochet mermaid amigurumi pattern? First of all, I recommend using different colors that are close to each other in tone. The biggest reason for this is that it will have a more lively and realistic appearance. It is also important that the amigurumi mermaid is very detailed. You will find even the smallest details on the step by step pattern. However, you can remove the parts you don’t like. You decide this. Now let’s come to the construction stages of the free crochet amigurumi pattern. Stay tuned for many more free crochet amigurumi patterns!

Fill the inside with fiber as the body progresses.
We are making 60 Reverse Single Crochet on the FLO which we made 61st and finish the lower body.
