0:05hello everyone and welcome or welcome
0:07back to my channel if you don't know me
0:09my name is Sarah and in today's tutorial
0:11we are going to be crocheting a shark
0:13now I made a bunch of these for my last
0:15market and sold out on all but the
0:17orange one which if you know anything
0:19about markets orange and yellow tend to
0:21be the worst seller so it makes sense
0:23for this pattern I would say shy away
0:26from the size four velvet yarn they just
0:29don't turn out as nice nice with that
0:30velvet yarn but I'm sure a burnout
0:32blanket might work or even like a skinny
0:35Chanel and an acrylic yarn let's get
0:37right into this we're going to first go
0:38through the material list before I go
0:40any further I forgot to mention if you
0:42prefer the written pattern check out the
0:44description I have both the pattern in
0:46my ribler shop and in my coffee shop I
0:48use loops and threads sweet snuggles
0:50light or their Chanel H home slim
0:52whichever one they're both
0:53interchangeable you will need a base
0:55color and then you will need a belly
0:57color for this I'll be using white and
0:59then optionally you can have a small
1:01amount of black yarn to make the gills
1:04on the side of the head and next up for
1:06materials you'll need a crochet hook I
1:08use a 5.5 when working with a size six
1:10yarn but use whatever hook works best
1:12for you and your yarn type and I have a
1:14pair of scissors stitch marker if you
1:16need one and then a sewing needle I
1:19recommend plastic if you're curious how
1:20I work with the Chanel yarn I have a
1:22tips and tricks video which I'll have
1:24Linked In the description for you and
1:25one of those tips is to use a plastic
1:26needle rather than metal the way I begin
1:29my Chanel pieces I use some acrylic yarn
1:32so if you use that method that will also
1:34be in the tips and tricks video if you
1:35want to check it out I'm using a 20 mm
1:38these are 20 mm eyes for this shark and
1:41I think that's about it for the
1:42materialist so let's just get started we
1:43are going to begin with the body so
1:45we'll be using the primary color and you
1:48can make a magic ring or use your chain
1:50two method whichever one I will be using
1:53the acrylic magic ring method where you
1:55basically use the acrylic yarn in place
1:57of the Chanel for the actual Center
2:00P just like so but whatever method you
2:03end up using make sure you have six
2:04single crochets into that first
2:14round for round two you're going to
2:17increase and single crochet one and
2:20you're going to repeat that three times
2:38now if you're using a stitch marker feel
2:40free to insert it into the final Stitch
2:42of each round and for round three we're
2:45going to increase single crochet two
2:50[Music]
3:09I'm going to secure my Tails real quick
3:12if you want you can do this a little bit
3:13later but I like to do this before I
3:15turn my work right side
3:25out just some basic knots to tie
3:27everything together is sufficient
3:31and now we're going to do round four
3:32which is an increase in single crochet
3:34three and you're going to repeat that
3:35three times
3:41[Music]
3:50[Music]
4:00we're done with round four now we're
4:01going to move on to round five you're
4:02going to increase and single crochet
4:04four and you're going to repeat that
4:06three times
4:14[Music]
4:27[Music]
4:31once you're finished with round five
4:32we're going to do round six which is an
4:34increase and single crochet five and
4:36you'll repeat that three times
4:51[Music]
4:57[Music]
5:02for round seven we are going to increase
5:04and then single crochet six and you'll
5:06repeat that three times
5:10[Music]
5:27[Music]
5:38[Music]
5:42we done with round seven we're going to
5:43do round eight which is an increase
5:45single crochet seven and we'll repeat
5:48that three times
6:05[Music]
6:24[Music]
6:25when you're done with round eight we're
6:26going to do round nine which is an
6:27increase and single crochet eight and
6:30you'll repeat that three times
7:15once you're done with round nine we're
7:16going to do round 10 and for round 10 we
7:19will just simply be single crocheting in
7:21each Stitch around
7:30[Music]
7:46[Music]
8:05once you're done with round 10 we're
8:06going to do round 11 where we're going
8:08to increase in single crochet 9 and you
8:10repeat that three times
8:56and that is round 11 finished and also
8:59our last increase round complete so now
9:01for the next two rounds we're going to
9:03single crochet in each Stitch
10:36and that is the end of our single
10:38crochet rounds now we're going to insert
10:41the safety eyes now the best way to
10:44insert your safety eyes is to figure out
10:46where your increases are so if you hold
10:49your shark you can actually kind of see
10:51where a triangle begins to form and it
10:54doesn't really matter where you hold it
10:56there will be a triangle because of
10:58where we placed our ink increases now
11:00what you want to do is you want to
11:02insert your eyes on two of these
11:05increases if that makes sense right
11:07across from each other with one of the
11:09increases so like the poiner side facing
11:12down right now it's facing up but when
11:15it when we finish the plushy it will be
11:16facing down and that way we can sew the
11:19belly on and get the belly nice and
11:22tight and just stretch it over you're
11:24going to insert them so here's my
11:26increase here I'm going to go 1 2 3 3 4
11:295 6 7 8 and N9 and go right under one of
11:33those increases and now what we can do
11:36is go to the other side so I'm going to
11:37flip it over and we can trace this round
11:41around and insert our safety eye just
11:44above the other increase so we have both
11:47our increases down here eyes up here and
11:50an increase up here on top if that makes
11:52any sense I hope it does um if it
11:55doesn't just insert the safety eyes with
11:57like a little bit more like one extra
11:59exra stitch on the bottom
12:02and looking at this I will move my eyes
12:05a little bit you want them to be fairly
12:07even but with a little bit more space on
12:10the one
12:25side if you look at the eyes you can see
12:28they're about even
12:29but one side just has an extra Stitch
12:31and it's going to be this
12:33side has an extra little space and this
12:37is where we'll be sewing the belly that
12:39way the belly doesn't have any lumps and
12:41it's nice and flat so hopefully that
12:43made sense and we're going to move on to
12:45our next round and the next round is our
12:48first decrease round so we're going to
12:50decrease and then single crochet 9ine
12:53and you're going to repeat that three
12:55times I use the invisible decrease but
12:57go ahead and use whatever decrease you
12:59would normally use
13:13[Music]
13:31[Music]
13:36that's the first decrease round done and
13:38for the next round we are just going to
13:39be single crocheting in each Stitch
13:41around
13:59[Music]
14:20[Music]
14:25that's the end of that single crochet
14:26round now we're going to move on to
14:28round six 16 where we will decrease in
14:31single crochet 8 and you'll repeat that
14:33three times
14:38[Music]
15:21[Music]
15:25once you have finished that decrease
15:26round we are going to single crochet in
15:29in each Stitch around
15:36[Music]
15:51[Music]
15:56[Music]
16:02[Music]
16:14once you finished that single crochet
16:15round we are going to decrease and then
16:17single crochet 7even and we'll repeat
16:19that three times
16:28[Music]
16:49[Music]
17:15once we finished with that single
17:16crochet round feel free to stuff as you
17:19go I think I'm going to wait a little
17:21bit longer but I will you know what I'll
17:24start stuffing the tip I realized I
17:26don't really talk about stuffing that
17:28often and and I think it's really
17:29important especially watching my
17:31beginner sister learn a
17:33crochet um for stuffing the way you want
17:35to do it is you don't want it to be too
17:37hard that it can hurt somebody and you
17:39want it to be hard enough that it will
17:42hold its shape so what I like to do is
17:45if your stuffing is uh all clumped up
17:48break it up a bit so you kind of make
17:50like a layer and you want it to be kind
17:53of soft not too hard of a layer and you
17:55want to push that layer in and use your
17:57other hand to cup the plushy so here
18:00what I'm doing is cupping the bottom and
18:02I'm taking my hand and I'm stuffing the
18:04stuffing down towards the my cued hand
18:07and that just rounds everything out and
18:10then you do the same thing all the way
18:12around the plushy until that hole is
18:14filled and when you are tamping the
18:17stuffing down you only want to Tamp it
18:18enough that it stays in place and not
18:20enough that it becomes hard as a rock so
18:23this has taken a lot of practice my
18:26first plushies were under stuffed and
18:29over stuffed um so just practice and try
18:32and get better use your hand to cup it
18:34and use your other hand to just push it
18:37gently into place and don't be afraid to
18:40rip all the stuffing out and start again
18:42I still do that and I've been crocheting
18:44for 11 years now I still pull out the
18:47stuffing sometimes especially on bigger
18:49plushies you can just kind of get ahead
18:51of yourself and stuff it too hard so
18:54yeah that's my little stuffing lesson
18:56now we're going to continue decreasing
18:58for a few more rounds and we'll stuff
18:59some more we just finished our decrease
19:02round so we're going to single crochet
19:03in each Stitch around
19:39and for the next round we are going to
19:41decrease and then single crochet six and
19:43we'll repeat that three times
20:21okay once you're done with that you're
20:22going to single crochet in each Stitch
20:25around I'm sure you guys have figured
20:27out the pattern already you're just
20:29decreasing and then single
20:31crocheting and we're going to repeat
20:33that all the way down until we have six
20:45[Music]
20:55stitches once you're finished with that
20:57single crochet round round we're going
20:59to decrease and single crochet five and
21:01we'll repeat that three times
21:20[Music]
21:31and for the next round we are going to
21:33single crochet in each Stitch around
22:01once your single crochet round is
22:02complete feel free to stuff some more
22:05when you stuff I recommend staying about
22:093 or four rounds away from where you're
22:10actually working until you get to the
22:13point where you're at 12 or 9 or six
22:17stitches um that way you're not
22:20crocheting the stuffing into your plushy
22:22which is one of the most annoying things
22:24about stuffing a plushy in my opinion at
22:27least
23:37[Music]
23:43here we go we have a torpedo we are
23:46almost done with the body thankfully now
23:48we are on decrease single crochet 4 and
23:51you're going to repeat that three times
23:54[Music]
24:22[Music]
24:27once you're finished your decrease round
24:29you're going to single crochet in each
24:31Stitch around
25:00and now we are going to decrease and
25:01single crochet three and we'll repeat
25:03that three times
25:13[Music]
25:33once you finished with that decrease
25:34round you're going to do single crochet
25:36in each Stitch
25:44[Music]
25:53around and now we are going to stuff
25:55some more
25:57[Music]
26:14[Music]
26:32now we're going to move on to our next
26:34decrease round where we will decrease
26:36and single crochet two and we'll repeat
26:38that three
26:47[Music]
26:54times and for the next round you will
26:56single crochet in each Stitch s
27:07around and I'm going to stuff some more
27:31[Music]
27:48and for our final decrease round we will
27:50decrease and single crochet one and then
27:52we'll repeat that three times
28:01[Music]
28:03and for our final round we're going to
28:05single crochet
28:12[Music]
28:14six you're going to slip stitch chain
28:17one fast and off and you just need a
28:18length of yarn long enough to close up
28:21this bottom
28:25hole and finish stuffing as need
28:28[Music]
28:38needed now we're going to take our
28:41sewing needle and close up this hole I
28:44recommend plastic for the Chanel yarn
28:46and even for burnat yarn you're going to
28:48pick up all the front
28:50loops and sent it closed
29:08I like to create a little bit of
29:10knot and then weave in this end
29:28and I'll tuck this tail in with my
29:30scissors so I don't have to save any of
29:31the scrap
29:32yarn be careful when you do this though
29:35as not break your yarn cuz I have done
29:37that once before and it was traumatizing
29:40and there we have the body of the shark
29:42finished we will set this aside and
29:44we'll start on the belly piece next
29:46because that's the first thing that
29:47we're going to sew on so let's do that
29:49to start the belly piece you're going to
29:51want to leave a
29:54long so we're going to start with a slip
29:57knot just a basic slip knot and leave a
30:01long tail like I said because we're
30:03going to be sewing this
30:05on and you're going to chain two and in
30:09the first chain you're going to increase
30:11so you're going to skip that chain First
30:13Chain next your hook and increase in the
30:16second one and then you will chain one
30:19turn and you're going to single crochet
30:21in the next two
30:23stitches chain one turn and single
30:26crochet in the next two stitches
30:28now the chain does not count as a stitch
30:30so don't crochet into it and just
30:33basically just ignore it for the next
30:35round you're going to in you're going to
30:36chain one and you're going to increase
30:39in the next two
30:43stitches and then you're going to chain
30:45one and for the next two rounds you're
30:47going to single crochet in each
30:50Stitch keep saying rounds and I meant to
30:53say row but gets the point across I
30:55guess
31:02now you're going to chain one turn and
31:05for the next row you're going to
31:07increase single crochet two and then
31:10increase in that last
31:16Stitch here's what we have so far this
31:19is the tail portion and going all the
31:21way up we're going to get to the Head
31:22part we're going to chain one and turn

31:26going to single crochet in the next six
31:42[Music]
31:52stitches for the next row we are going
31:55to increase single crochet four and then
31:57and
32:10increase chain one and turn and for the
32:12next two rows we're going to single
32:15crochet in each Stitch
32:40for the next round you're going to
32:43increase single crochet six and then you
32:46will increase again
33:04chain one and turn and now you will
33:06single crochet in each stitch for the
33:08next three
33:26rounds for
34:00[Music]
34:07for the next round you're going to
34:08increase single crochet 8 and then
34:11increase again
34:34you're going to chain one turn and for
34:36the next five rounds we are going to do
34:38single crochet in each Stitch
34:46[Music]
35:01[Music]
35:07[Music]
35:22[Music]
35:39here's what it looks like so far we are
35:41almost finished we are going to begin
35:44our decreases so what we're going to do
35:45is
35:46decrease single crochet8 and then
35:49decrease once again
36:01going to chain one turn and single
36:03crochet in each
36:08[Music]
36:17Stitch now we're going to chain one turn
36:20and we're going to decrease single
36:22crochet six and then decrease again
36:37chain one turn and single crochet in
36:40each
36:49[Music]
36:50Stitch now we are going to chain one
36:53turn decrease single crochet four and
36:56then decrease
37:06now'll chain one turn and decrease
37:09single crochet two and decrease and that
37:12is our last
37:15Stitch we chain one and fasten off with
37:18a
37:19long tail for set
37:33and here's what the belly piece looks
37:35like when it's finished the longer end
37:38is the tail and then up here is where
37:41the head piece is we're done with the
37:42white so feel free to set it aside we're
37:44going to do the top fins first and we're
37:47going to use our magic ring or chain two
37:49method whichever method you prefer and
37:52in this magic ring or your chain two
37:54you're going to be single crocheting
37:56four
38:01and now you're going to cinch that up
38:03and close it and now you're going to
38:05increase single crochet increase single
38:18crochet after that round you're going to
38:20increase single crochet two and repeat
38:23that twice
38:25[Music]
38:31I'm going to secure my Tails real quick
38:33so I can turn this right side
38:37out same thing that we did with the body
38:40of the shark just some basic knots to
38:42keep it
38:46[Music]
38:50secure turn it right side out and now
38:53we're going to move on to the next round
38:55which is an increased single crochet
38:56three and you'll repeat that
39:10twice that's the end of that round and
39:12for the next one we will increase single
39:14crochet four twice
39:28for the next round we are going to
39:30increase and then single crochet five
39:33and we'll repeat that
39:51twice and for the last round we are
39:54going to decrease in the next Stitch
39:58we're going to single crochet
40:00four and then we will half double
40:02crochet four and single crochet
40:05four and then we will be finished with
40:07that
40:17round now you will slip stitch chain one
40:21fasten off leaving a length of yarn for
40:25sewing and since this is the top fin we
40:27are going to stuff it very lightly you
40:31can see the difference between unstuffed
40:33and stuffed so this one is unstuffed
40:35this one is stuffed and the reason I
40:38like to stuff it is because this one is
40:40all bendy and it'll stay to the side and
40:42stuff versus this one where it it bends
40:46together and all in all I just think it
40:48looks better but if you want you can
40:50leave it on stuff it's up to you just
40:52the lightest amount of stuffing in here
40:59just like so now we can set this guy
41:01aside for now and we're going to move on
41:04to the back fins for the back fins
41:07you're going to create your magic ringer
41:10chain two method and you're going to put
41:12four single crochets into whichever
41:14method you
41:18use for the next round we going to
41:21increase and then single crochet and
41:23we'll repeat that twice
41:31for the next round we will increase
41:33single crochet two and repeat that
41:44twice now I'm going to secure my Center
41:46tails
42:08for the next round we are going to
42:09increase single crochet three and we'll
42:12repeat that two
42:21times for the next round we're going to
42:24increase in single crochet four and then
42:26we'll do that two
42:41times and for our final round we are
42:44going to single crochet five then we
42:47will decrease twice and then we will
42:49single crochet three
43:05you're going to slip stitch chain one
43:07fasten
43:11off leaving a length of yarn for
43:15sewing and now you're going to make two
43:17of these I'll have the time stamp on the
43:19screen for how you can replay it and now
43:22we're going to move on to the side fins
43:25for the front fins we are going to to
43:27begin with our magic ring or our chain 2
43:29method whichever one is your preferred
43:32method and in that magic ring or your
43:35chain two you will single crochet
43:45four for the next round we will increase

44:49twice and for the next round we are
44:51going to increase single crochet four
44:54and we'll repeat that twice
45:09and now we are going to single crochet
45:12across the fin to close it so fold it in
45:14half and working through both sides
45:16single crochet six
45:24[Music]
45:28now you will chain one fasten off and
45:30leave a length of yarn for sewing again
45:33I'll have the time stamp on the screen
45:34for you to replay the video and create a
45:38second one of these cuz you need two of
45:39them and once you have your two front
45:42fins your two back fins and then your
45:46Top Fin we can move on to the sewing I
45:50am going to adjust the camera for that
45:52since this will take up a little bit
45:53more space and then we'll get right into
45:55it to begin sewing we're going to start
45:57with the belly and you'll need the head
45:59of course and what you want to do is
46:02find your your increase the one that's
46:05in the middle the one we talked about
46:06earlier and that's where we'll be sewing
46:08the belly on so for me this is this side
46:11right here and we're going to start at
46:13the tip of the nose using the end on the
46:16top part of your belly you're going to
46:19thread your
46:22needle you want to sew this on between
46:27the first increase round and the second
46:29increase
46:32round so right
46:39here and pull it all the way through and
46:41now we're just going to
46:43sew along the top here and you want to
46:46try and keep it centered feel free to
46:47pin this in place as well if you prefer
46:50to do it that way
47:01[Music]
47:04and then you want to sew the side of
47:08this flap just under the
47:11eye you want to look right about there
47:14and then just go straight across down to
47:16the tip of the tail so I'll just be
47:18taking each round into each round of the
47:20body so each round of the belly
47:30and you're just going to stitch all the
47:31way across
47:59[Music]
48:11once you get to past the eye you want to
48:13start slowly stitching down since this
48:17shrinks you don't want to go straight
48:18across you want to start going down
48:48[Music]
49:15when you get to the tip of the tail we
49:17are going to switch the ends that we are
49:19sewing with and use the other one that
49:22we left
49:23behind at this point your other end
49:26might be quite small
49:30so and we're just going to stitch along
49:32the other side now this is where it gets
49:35a little tricky you want to make sure
49:38that when you sew you're stretching the
49:40fabric all the way across to touch the
49:42other eye and you can pin this in place
49:45if you need to I will just be stitching
49:47it and making sure that it is going this
49:50way as you can see there's a lot of
49:52space that we're going to have to pull
49:53it over and you want to be careful not
49:55to snap your yarn while pulling the
49:59fabric over
51:28here's about what it should look like
51:30when you are finished if you want to
51:32double sew it on go ahead but I usually
51:35just leave it once now we're going to
51:37tuck in these Tails real quick so I like
51:40to create a little Arch tuck the needle
51:42under it to create a knot and
51:45then weave it right in
52:29[Music]
52:39The Next Step that I like to do is sew
52:42the gills on so you're just going to
52:44take some black yarn thread your
52:48needle and starting from basically
52:50anywhere in the body you want to bring
52:52the tail down and out one stitch down
52:57right underneath the corner of the eye
53:00and then right one stitch into the body
53:03you're going to want to put your needle
53:05and you want to come out two stitches
53:07below the
53:09belly pull that nice and tight but not
53:12too tight and then we'll take this tail
53:15and we'll go two stitches up and then
53:17out through the next Stitch of the belly
53:20just one Stitch
53:22Above and you want to pull this nice and
53:25tight
53:26and then same thing that we did with the
53:28first one just one Stitch Above and this
53:31one will actually go all the way across
53:33and
53:35start one stitch underneath the corner
53:38the other
53:40eye this doesn't have to be perfect so
53:43don't worry about it too much just
53:44enough to get the point across and
53:45you're
53:47good on the other side we're going to
53:49repeat the exact same thing we just did
53:51we're going to go through two of the
53:52stitches and then for the next one we'll
53:55go through four and then the final one
53:57will go through
54:03two and then when you're finished you're
54:05going to go right up to the top of the
54:06doll and tie your two ends
54:11together going to cut these nice and
54:13short I don't see the need to weave them
54:14in and then we'll tie them
54:18together and then we'll just tuck this
54:20right in where it is
54:30and there you
54:32are got Gill on one side and
54:36then gills on the other side you can set
54:39the black yarn aside and we're going to
54:41now so on the side
54:45fins thread your needle and you can pick
54:49either side to start with just make sure
54:50that the right side of the fabric is
54:53facing towards you and you want to start
54:56between the Stitch of the belly and the
54:58body and you want to go up and you want
55:00to be right next to the
55:04gills and then take the first Stitch go
55:07through and then go to the next Stitch
55:10over and you're going to leave a little
55:11space between the belly and the
55:15body pull it nice and tight and then
55:18just sew this all the way
55:25down make sure you pull nice and tight
55:27but not too tight that you snap your
55:33[Music]
55:36yarn and then for our last Stitch we're
55:38going to go back in again towards the
55:42belly and then pick up the
55:48corner go right back through that bottom
55:50Stitch and up the top and now I like to
55:53go back down and secure everything once
55:56again just cuz this is a part of the uh
55:59shark where people can pull on it and
56:02tug on it so you want nice and secure
56:11[Music]
56:24[Music]
56:31when you make it all the way back you're
56:32going to create an
56:34arch and then make a knot pull it tight
56:37don't pull it too tight and then you can
56:39weave this tail right into the
56:43body and then we'll repeat this on the
56:45other side but we'll be going the other
56:47way so we'll need to count the stitches
56:55[Music]
56:59tuck this right
57:05in for the other front fin you want the
57:10right side facing you so you have to
57:12start from the other way we know there
57:14are six stitches so we just count 1 2 3
57:17four five and six so we want to start
57:19right
57:21here and you want to count it after you
57:23thread your needle
57:25[Music]
57:281 2 3 four five and six and we're going
57:30to go right into that Stitch and up
57:32again just like we did on the other
57:36side and Stitch across
57:41[Music]
58:03that last Stitch we're going to curve in
58:05a little bit just like we did with the
58:07other
58:09side grab the corner go back through and
58:12up again and then I'll sew across just
58:15like we did with the other side I'll sew
58:17across one more time
58:42[Music]
58:51then create your knot and we're going to
58:53tuck this right into the body
59:00and wave it in
59:12[Music]
59:22[Music]
59:27now going to sew on the Top Fin
59:30next and I like to sew the Top Fin you
59:33want your half double crochets to be
59:35facing the front of the shark and then I
59:37like to crochet the fin or sew the fin
59:40on where it's in line with the side fins
59:43and then obviously centered between the
59:46eyes feel free to pin this in place as
59:52well and I will start down here you want
59:55to sew the front or you want to sew the
59:59Top Fin a little bit
1:00:00wider since we stuffed it a little bit
1:00:03you don't want it to be super
1:00:06thin and just as you Stitch make sure
1:00:08it's centered and everything
1:00:35once you come to the tip just turn and
1:00:38work along the other way leaving about a
1:00:40stitch or two between the original seam
1:00:43on the other
1:00:49side and if you wish you can stuff it a
1:00:52little bit more mine is pretty well
1:00:54stuffed don't over stuff it cuz you
1:00:56don't want it
1:00:57to um become round you want it to stay
1:01:00pretty
1:01:15flat I want to go through and sew over
1:01:18everything
1:01:20again and double secure it
1:01:58and there we are the Top Fin is attached
1:02:01now we're going to sew on the back fins
1:02:05and then we'll be finished so I like to
1:02:07start with the
1:02:10top and then sew the bottom one on
1:02:14after and when you sew you want to make
1:02:16sure that your 2D creases are towards
1:02:19the middle and the flatter side is
1:02:21towards the
1:02:24outside and this doesn't need to be
1:02:26anywhere specific just start sewing you
1:02:29can pin it in place and then start
1:02:30sewing as well just want to leave four
1:02:32or five
1:02:34stitches and sew it
1:02:46across and when you get to the tip just
1:02:48turn right
1:02:51around and work along the other way this
1:02:53one we're sewing on like the top thin
1:02:57but we're not going to be stuffing it so
1:03:00you don't need to sew it too
1:03:22wide then I'm going to double seam it
1:03:25and and go back around one more time
1:04:18and once you come back all the way
1:04:19around you're going to create a little
1:04:21knot and weave in this end just right
1:04:23into the body
1:04:54and now we're going to sew on the final
1:04:57finin that's going to be the
1:05:04underside thread your needle make sure
1:05:06the decreases are on the inside and the
1:05:09flat Edge is on the outside and we're
1:05:11just going to start
1:05:18sewing I like to on the second or third
1:05:20Stitch start sewing around the belly
1:05:23piece and kind of just tide the white in
1:05:26the tip of the tail
1:05:29[Music]
1:05:48[Applause]
1:06:02[Music]
1:06:06and then for this one you do want to go
1:06:08back
1:06:09around and what we're going to do is
1:06:11we're going
1:06:13to pull these together a little bit and
1:06:16Stitch them
1:06:23together just go up through into the
1:06:26other Fin and
1:06:28just sew the two bottom points
1:06:32together this just makes it a little bit
1:06:37cleaner just like so and do it as much
1:06:40as you like until you get the shape that
1:06:43you want I'm going to go back to the
1:06:45other side and finish
1:06:47stitching everything nice and secure and
1:06:50then we
1:06:51will secure this tail with a knot and
1:06:53tuck it into the body so

1:07:44off any extra fluffies or at least
