Step-by-step Guide

Materials Needed

• Crochet yarn in primary mermaid color (Ariel: red hair, purple top, green tail)
• Crochet hook suitable for yarn size
• Filling material (Polyfill)
• Yarn needle
• Safety eyes (optional)
• Stitch markers

General Steps

Head and Body:

• Start with the head color and create a magic ring or circle. Increase and decrease rounds as stated in your pattern to form the head. Continue to crochet downwards to create the body, changing colors as required. Keep a stitch marker at the beginning of each round to keep track.

Arms (Make 2):

• Using the skin color yarn, create a smaller piece for the arms. Fill them with polyfill and sew them onto the sides of the body using a yarn needle.

Tail:

• Create the tail starting with a magic circle and follow the increases/decreases stated in your pattern. The tail usually involves shell stitches to resemble the scales of the mermaid's tail. Once completed, sew the tail onto the body.

Hair:

• Make individual crochet chains to resemble locks of hair. Attach these onto the head using a yarn needle.

Face and Details:

• Attach safety eyes or embroider them on. Embroider a smile below the eyes using yarn. If desired, create a small shell-shaped crochet piece for Ariel's top and sew it onto the body.

Finish:

• Weave in all the ends, and your crochet Ariel Mermaid Amigurumi is ready.
