    Step-by-Step Crochet Instructions:

    1. Crochet the Fish’s Top Fin

    Start with orange yarn:

    • Make a slip knot and chain 8.
    • Skip 1 chain, then crochet 2 single crochet (SC).
    • Next, make 1 half double crochet (HDC).
    • In the next stitch, do a HDC increase (2 HDC in one stitch).
    • Continue with 1 HDC and 1 SC.
    • Slip stitch into the last stitch, chain 1, and fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.

    2. Crochet the Bottom Fin

    Follow the same steps as the top fin but start with a chain of 6 instead of 8.

    3. Crochet the Fish’s Body

    Use yellow yarn:

    • Start with a magic ring, chain 1, and make 6 SC inside the ring.
    • Close the ring and mark the first stitch.

      • Round 4: (2 SC, 1 increase) repeat around (24 SC total).
      • Rounds 5-10: 1 SC in each stitch (24 SC).
    • For shaping the fish, start decreasing in rounds 11-14.

    4. Crochet the Fish’s Tail

    Attach orange yarn to row 14:

    • Round 15: SC in front loops only (12 SC).
    • Round 16: 2 DC in each stitch (24 DC).
    • Round 17: (Chain 3, slip stitch) repeat around to create the fin texture.
