When I started designing this crochet turtle I had three objectives. I wanted it to be a no sew pattern. I know a lot of people don’t love the sewing process, so I wanted this to be crochet only! I also wanted this to be a super quick project… My goal was under an hour! Of course, I also wanted to make something that was super cute. I feel like I accomplished the mission!

This turtle pattern would be a great pattern if you like to sell what you make. Once you make your first crochet turtle, you will want to make a second! The plush yarn really helps it work up quickly, and you will be under an hour a turtle in no time.

While the no sew aspect makes it slightly more complicated, it is super gratifying to see it come together! The only reason you need a needle is to weave in any ends. You make the fins and head first, then as you crochet the shell/body you attach as you go! Even the ridge of the crochet turtle shell is created by working the front loop on one row, then the back loop on the next one!

The plush yarn makes this amigurumi turtle really cozy and squishy! I know for a fact that kids think they are great, which makes this an awesome last minute gift! Keep some of this plush yarn on hand and you are set for any surprise birthdays. It also doesn’t take a lot, so it is cost effective, too!
