Continue Crochet in Mermaid tail

In Mermaid tail, attach with red yarn in 3 ch sp, ch 3, 2 dc, ch 2, (in next 3 ch sp: 3 dc + 2 ch).

Mermaid arms. 

1st Arm. 

Count 8 rows upwards from last row of red yarn. Count 7 sc from beg of row and attach with sl st, sc in same sc, crochet back towards beg of row, sc in next 3 sc. Turn. (Ch 1, sc in next 3 sc). Rep 5 rows.

2nd Arm. 

Attach sl st same row as 1st arm, count 7 sc backwards. Rep as 1st arm.

Crochet fingers. (Ch 3, sl st in 3rd ch from hook, sl st in next st) x 3.

Mermaid eyes (make 2). 

These crochet eyes are more like buttons where you will glue on crochet doll eyes.

Make a slip knot. Ch 1, sc in ring until you can not fit any more scs in round. Continue crochet over the round of scs with another round of scs. Repeat a third time of scs. Now the eye ‘button’ is folding slightly inwards. Use the inwards side of buttons outwards so that the doll eyes can sit within the buttons.

Mermaid nose. 

Ch 2, turn. 5 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Stitch nose on the middle of the face.

Mermaid Hair.

Attach green hair with sl st on top of the head.

Attach the two heart-shaped beads with a string around the Mermaid’s upper body to make a bikini.

Notice the fingernails. I ‘painted’ them pink by using a string of pink thread across fingers. I used the same pink yarn to create the mouth.
