I LOVE this pattern! A GREAT realistic crocheted Orca! Body all in ONE piece! Looking at him, he looks very difficult, but with some time and patience, he is not hard at all. The pattern is very well written and easy to read. The color changes are done row by row, but are written(when needed) LINE by LINE! VERY easy to follow! I made my first Orca for my son who loves Free Willy and all Orcas, so I did take more than usual time creating him, and I am glad I did! Not only did he come out perfect! but my son LOVES him! The shape of the flippers and fin are just like the real orca! I have never made a tail the way June made this ones and it is so incredible! Easy to crochet and sew and realistically shaped. June's photos are precise in assisting you to create this wonderful Amigurumi. I will be making more than one of these! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thanks June!
