Hi friends, welcome to my channel. Today I'm gonna show you how to crochet these adorable seahorses. If you're looking for fun and colorful project for summer, this one's just right for you. Look how cute they are. Now let's get started. I'm gonna use this brand Milk Cotton with 2.5 millimeter crochet hook for the whole project. Now we're gonna start from the head. For that I'm gonna use this purple yarn. You can use any color you want. First, we're gonna make a magic ring. After making magic ring, make 8 single crochet into that magic ring. Mark the first stitch with stitch marker. After making 8 single crochet, pull the yarn tail to close it. And now we're finished round 1. We're gonna start round 2. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and make 1 single crochet at the first stitch. I'm gonna mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So in round 2, we're gonna make 8 increase. So I'm gonna make another 1 single crochet at the same stitch. So basically increase means making 2 stitches in 1. So this is 1 increase. We're gonna repeat like this 7 more times. So at the next stitch, I'm gonna make 2 single crochet. Now we've got 2 increase. We're gonna repeat like this until the end of the row. And now we're finished round 2. So we're gonna start round 3. I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and make 1 single crochet at the first stitch. I'm gonna mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So in round 3, we're gonna make 1 single crochet and 1 increase for 8 times. I've made 1 single crochet here. So I'm gonna make increase at the next stitch. So this is 1 single crochet and 1 increase for 1 time. We're gonna repeat like this for 7 more times. So at the next stitch, I'm gonna make 1 single crochet and increase at the next stitch. Now we've got 2 sets. We're gonna repeat like this until the end of the row. And now we're finished round 3. We're gonna start round 4. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and make 1 single crochet at the first stitch. Mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So in round 4, we're gonna make 3 single crochet and 1 increase for 6 times. I'm gonna make 3 single crochet first. So this is 3 single crochet. After making 3 single crochet, make increase at the next stitch. So this is 3 single crochet and 1 increase for 1 time. We're gonna repeat like this for 5 more times. Now we've got 2 sets. We're gonna repeat like this until the end of the row. Now we're finished round 4. We're gonna start round 5. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and make 1 single crochet at the first stitch. Mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So from round 5 to round 9, we're just gonna have to make 30 single crochet in each round by making 1 single crochet in each stitch of the round. And now I finished round 9. So after round 9, we're gonna stop for a while and attach the eyes. So we're gonna attach the eyes at round 7 and round 8 with 7 stitches apart. So I have placed the first pin with 10 stitches apart starting from the first stitch. So this is 10 stitches apart from the first. And for the second pin, I have placed the pin at 13 stitches apart starting from the last stitch. And then I'm gonna insert the eyes at the pinned place. So for the eyes, I have used this 8 mm safety eyes. And then I'm gonna insert them at the pinned place. So I'm gonna remove the first pin and insert the eye right here. And the second eye at the second pin. And then secure them. And now we have attached both eyes. After attaching the eyes, let's start next round which is round 10. So in round 10, we're gonna make 3 single crochet and 1 decrease for 6 times. So I'm gonna make 3 single crochet first. I'm gonna mark the first stitch with stitch marker. After making 3 single crochet, make decrease at the next 2 stitches. So if you don't know how to make decrease, I'm gonna show you. Basically decrease means making 2 stitches into 1. So to make decrease, we're gonna insert the hook into first loop only of the next 2 stitches like this. And then pull the yarn through 2 loops. And pull through another 2 loops. So this is decrease. So this is 3 single crochet and 1 decrease for 1 time. We're gonna repeat like this for 5 more times. And now we've got 2 sets. We're gonna repeat like this until the end of the row. And now we've finished round 10. We're gonna start round 11. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and make 1 single crochet at the first stitch. Mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So in round 11, we're gonna make 2 single crochet and 1 decrease for 6 times. So I'm gonna make 2 single crochet first. After making 2 single crochet, make decrease at the next 2 stitches.

We're gonna start round 13. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker. So in round 13, we're gonna crochet into front loop only for the whole round. So instead of inserting the hook into the whole stitch, we're gonna insert the hook into front loop only like this for the whole round. So I'm gonna make 1 single crochet at the first stitch.

And here we're gonna change the color to yellow. You can change any color you want. So instead of pulling the purple yarn, we're gonna pull through the yellow yarn. And that completes 1 single crochet. So starting from next stitch, we're gonna make 4 single crochet by making 1 single crochet in each stitch. So bring along the yarn tails on the hook. And at the 4th stitch, we're gonna change back the color to purple. So pick up the purple yarn and pull through the yarn. And now we've finished 4 single crochet. So at the next stitch, we're gonna make increase with purple yarn. Bring along the yellow yarn on the hook. After making increase, starting from next stitch, we're gonna make 5 single crochet. I'm gonna leave the yellow yarn here and cut it. After making 5 single crochet at the last stitch, make increase. Now we've finished round 14. This is what it looks like. So here, if you don't want to change color, you can just continue with the original color. The pattern will be the same. So here, I made it with no color change. So this is what it looks like.

We're gonna roll up the tail like this. It doesn't have to be exactly the same with me. If you wanna roll it up a bit more, you can just do it. So here, first I'm gonna roll up the tip a little bit like this and sew it here. And I'm gonna come up the needle here. Then roll the tail up. If you're happy with the roll, you can just sew it. Pull the yarn tightly. Then I'm gonna secure the yarn. To do that, I'm gonna insert the needle into a loop of a stitch like this. Then insert the needle here and pull the yarn tail tightly.

And for final stitch, we're gonna go down 1 row again and insert the hook diagonally. We are back at the place where we started. And make single crochet. After making 6 single crochet, make slip stitch with the first stitch. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker. And insert the hook into the first stitch. And then make slip stitch. And make chain 1. Now we have finished round 1. We're gonna start round 2. We're gonna start round 2 from the same stitch that we made slip stitch. So at the same stitch, I'm gonna make 1 single crochet. I'm gonna mark the first stitch with stitch marker. And I'm also gonna cut the hidden yarn tail. So in round 2, we're gonna make 1 single crochet and 1 increase for 3 times. I've made 1 single crochet here. So I'm gonna make increase at the next stitch. So this is 1 single crochet and 1 increase for 1 time. We're gonna repeat like this 2 more times. After that, we're gonna make slip stitch with the first stitch. So we're gonna skip slip stitch and chain 1 here. And make slip stitch with the first stitch. So I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and insert the hook into the first stitch. And make slip stitch. Then make chain 1. And now we have finished round 2. We're gonna start round 3. So we're gonna start round 3 from the same stitch that we made slip stitch. So at the same stitch, I'm gonna make 1 single crochet and mark the first stitch with stitch marker. So in round 3, we're just gonna have to make 9 single crochet by making 1 single crochet in each stitch of the round. And now we have finished round 3. After round 3, catch the yarn and attach the yarn tail with needle. After that, I'm gonna remove the stitch marker and insert the needle into the first stitch. And then insert it back at the middle of the last stitch like this. And pull the yarn gently. And hide the remaining yarn tail. Now we have finished the mouth. Now we're gonna make top fin. We're gonna make it from round 13 to round 1. Starting from here, we'll go straight to the top and end here. So to start, I'm gonna insert the hook at round 13. And then pull through this bright yellow yarn. You can use any color you want. And then make 4 chains. After making 4 chains, starting from the third chain from the hook, we're gonna make half double crochet. And then at the next chain, make single crochet. And then insert the hook into next hole and make slip stitch. And then make chain 1. And we're gonna make next round. So for the next round, we're gonna skip the slip stitch and chain 1. And make single crochet on single crochet stitch and half double crochet on half double crochet stitch of the last round. So insert the hook like this, back loop only. So here I'm gonna insert the hook into single crochet stitch of previous round and make single crochet. And then insert the hook into half double crochet stitch of previous round and make half double crochet. After that, make chain 2 and turn. And then make half double crochet into half double crochet stitch of previous round. Remember to crochet in back loop only. And make 1 single crochet in 1 single crochet stitch of previous round. And then insert the hook into next hole and make slip stitch. We're gonna repeat the process until we reach to the top. Okay now make chain 1 and turn. We're gonna skip slip stitch and chain 1 of previous round and make single crochet by inserting into the single crochet stitch of previous round and make half double crochet by inserting the hook into half double crochet stitch of previous round. And then make chain 2 and turn. So basically if we add the row with half double crochet, we're make chain 2 and then make half double crochet into half double crochet stitch of previous round and make single crochet into single crochet stitch of previous round. And then make slip stitch by inserting the hook into the next row. And for this kind of rows, always make chain 1 and turn. And then skip slip stitch and chain 1 and insert the hook into single crochet stitch and make 1 single crochet and insert the hook into half double crochet stitch and make half double crochet. So repeat the pattern until we reach to the top round 1 and I will show you again after making it to the top. Now I have only one row left so I'm gonna make one last row. I'm gonna make chain 2 and make half double crochet into half double crochet stitch of previous round and make 1 single crochet into single crochet stitch of previous round. After that, insert the hook into next round and make slip stitch and then cut the yarn. I'm gonna attach the yarn tail with needle to hide the yarn tails. Double tie the two yarn tails and cut. And now we're finished the top fin. Now we're gonna make side fin. We're gonna make it from round 16 to round 18 and 4 stitches apart from the yellow color. So I'm gonna use this bright yellow yarn and insert the hook starting from round 18 and pull through the yellow yarn then make 5 chains. After making 5 chains, starting from the third chain from the hook, we're gonna make 1 double crochet, then make half double crochet at the next chain, 1 single crochet at the last chain and then make slip stitch by inserting the hook into the next row, then make chain 1 and turn. And like we did in the top fin, we're gonna skip slip stitch and chain 1 and insert the hook into single crochet stitch of previous round. and make single crochet. We're gonna crochet in back loop only for this round. And insert the hook into half double crochet stitch of previous round and make half double crochet. And finally insert the hook into double crochet stitch of previous round and make double crochet and then make chain 2 and turn and then we're make double crochet by inserting the hook into double crochet stitch of previous round crochet in back loop only and then make half double crochet onto half double crochet stitch of previous round and make single crochet onto single crochet stitch of previous round and then insert the hook into after that catch the yarn now attach the yarn tail with needle we're gonna hide the yarn tails double tie the two yarn tails and cut now we've finished the side fin we're gonna make the same for this side this is what it looks like after finishing both sides and finally we're gonna make waterline around the eye so i'm gonna use this white yarn attach it with needle and make a knot at the end i'm gonna insert it from the back and come out the needle on top of the eye and insert at the base of the eye and then hide the remaining yarn tail and cut now we have finished this seahorse for the one with no color change i'm gonna add a few dots at the belly so for that i'm gonna use this coral color attach it with needle and make a knot at the end and we're just gonna place the dots randomly so make the top fin and side fins exactly the same as previous ones and the pattern is basically the same only the belly part with color change or without color change this is the only difference now i'm gonna hide the remaining yarn tail and now we are done so these are the two fashions of seahorses i hope you enjoyed the tutorial thank you so much for watching my video and subscribe for more cute stuff see you again bye
