- This crochet
Little Sea Turtle are special order from my BFF. Gauge is not important – just
keep a consistent tension throughout the entire project.
- Crochet in a
spiral. Use something to mark the first stitch of a round, and move it up as
you work.
- “The Magic
Circle” is use to start each piece. Alternative technique: ch 2, then sc x6
into the second chain away from the hook. Slip stitch to join the round. This
creates Round 1.
