I worked really hard to create this pattern and release it for free so
please do not redistribute in part or in full. If you make and post
your Squirtle please credit me. I would love to see what you make!
You are allowed to sell the plushies you make from this pattern.
I do not own this character! This is simply a form of fanart for
those who love Pokémon :)
If at any point you feel confused please feel free to watch the
tutorial on YouTube at Tash’s Crochet ♡

Assembly time!
You don’t have to follow these exactly, use your own discretion and what
you think will look best on your plushie. I suggest using pins to
temporarily place each piece so you can see which placement is your
favourite.
I used felt to add blue cheeks just below the eyes. You could even make
the eyes out of felt to look more like anime eyes if that’s your style.
Using black yarn I sewed two straight lines as nose holes from the top of
round 11 to below it (10-12 area). The arms I attached just below the head
between rounds 17 - 21. Placing the feet the same width apart as the arms
at the base of the Squirtle.
The shell should be sewn on to the back of the body where you think is
best. Attach the tail underneath the shell at the bottom of the body. If you
are at all confused please watch the YouTube tutorial for help :)
That’s it! You have finished and made your very own Squirtle!! I really
hope you enjoyed this pattern. Don’t forget that if you want to make a
friend for your buddy then there is a free Pikachu and Charmander
pattern available from me too ♡
Special thanks to all my testers!
