NWM|| RAFA, THE SEA TURTLE 🐢
Blessed day my dear friends and colleagues of NeedleWorkMonday, it is a pleasure for me to greet you again and meet you in our community of crafters. Yesterday I was not able to write my post of all Needlework Mondays, because I have had problems uploading my photos to the Peakd editor, I have no idea if it is a general problem of the platform or just me. The fact is that today I am writing from the Eccency editor because I am very excited to show you my progress in learning the amigurumis technique.
The project I want to show you is a little sea turtle that my daughter and I named Rafa. You could say that Rafa is the first animal amigurumi that I have made in such a small size. I chose this project to continue practicing the amigurumi technique because I found it very simple and because it has the basics you need to learn when knitting amigurumis. Circumferences are fundamental in the case of knitted amigurumis, since every little animal and every character needs a head, that's why it's so important to know how to make a perfect little ball.
Las aletas se forman doblando las circunferencias a la mitad, se le coloca un poco de relleno sintético y luego se cosen por el borde.
La cabeza y el caparazón también se forman tejiendo círculos y colocando un poco de relleno.
As you can see in the pictures, all the pieces of this project are knitted in spiral circumferences. To help me with the sequence of the loops, I used a fabric marker.
The fins are formed by folding the circles in half, put some synthetic stuffing on them and then sew them around the edge.
The head and shell are also formed by knitting circles and placing some stuffing.
Having all the pieces ready, it only remains to put them together and give shape to the little turtle. The part that I still need to improve is the face expressions, consider that I'm terrible at this. The only thing I did was to put an eye on each side of the face. I would like to add more details to help give personality to the little turtle.
While I was knitting this beautiful project, I remembered that when I was a child and played with play dough I always used to make little turtles because that was what I did best. It was nice to remember those tender childhood moments. When the turtle was finished, my daughter and I agreed that his name would be Rafa, I can't tell you where the name came from, but it was something very spontaneous, so we named him Rafa the turtle.
With the turtle finished, the next step was to do the photo shoot to show the final product. For this I used a bone-colored fabric as a background and added several marine pieces that I brought from one of my trips to the beautiful Isla de Coche, a white sand island here in my country. Let me know what you think of the little turtle and what you think of the name we have given it. Thanks for reading, greetings and blessings.

Gracias por el apoyo, saludos.
Oh my! This is a cutie. 🥰 My son was requesting me to make him a crochet turtle long before and I'm delaying it since I am so lazy in reading written patterns or watching long tutorials.
But how you presented it in pictures, looks so easy to follow. 😍
This would be great for keychains also. I will be trying these babies soon.
Thank you so much for this tutorial Katty. 😘
I am so glad you like it, this pattern is very easy, I hope you can do it for your son.
Thanks so much for your nice comment.

En realidad es super sencillo, me alegra que te haya parecido lindo.
