Meet Sandy the Sea Turtle! Sandy loves spending the day surfing along the Australian shores with her friends while munching on seaweed. At night, she loves to find a quiet rock and gaze up at the beautiful night sky and twinkling stars.
Materials You Need:
-Worsted-weight yarn (4-ply) in two shades of green and two shades of brown. You’ll also need an accent color for the flower. (The U.K. equivalent is Aran, and AUS/NZ is 8 ply.) For my sea turtle, I used I Love This Yarn in the colors “Menthe”, “Mid Green”, “Dark Olive”, “Orchid”, and “Brown”. For the main shell color I used Red Heart Super Saver in the color “Warm Brown”. Unfortunately, this color has been discontinued.
