Free crochet turtle pattern: a Turtle with Flower Shell amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A small mint turtle with a smiling face and rosy cheeks, wearing a green shell covered with pink and yellow crochet flowers with gold centres. You need about 130 m of yarn: 35 m green, 35 m mint green, 10 m cream, 20 m rose pink, 15 m yellow, 10 m gold and 5 m blush pink. Plan on roughly 4 hours. A spring gift or garden-themed desk buddy; the flowers are small separate motifs, so they are a good way to use up scraps. You can spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern.
