How To Crochet Kissing Whales

Materials Needed:

5-ply Milk Cotton Yarn (Colors: White, Pink, and Blue)
3mm Crochet Hook
Darning Needle
Stitch Marker
Scissors
6mm Safety Eyes
Stuffing
Magnets (10mm wide and 5mm thick)
Keychain
Metal Letters
Pliers

Whale Body:

Starting with the Base (Using White Yarn):

Magic Ring: Wrap yarn around two fingers twice to form loops. Insert the hook under the first loop, grab the second loop, twist, and secure to create the magic ring.
Round 1: Six single crochets (sc) into the magic ring. Use a stitch marker to mark the first stitch.
Round 2: Increase by making two sc in each stitch from Round 1 (total of 12 stitches).
Round 3: Single crochet increase, followed by a single crochet – repeat this pattern for the whole round.
Rounds 4-8: One sc in each stitch around without increases, continuing with white yarn for rounds 4 and 5, then changing to pink or blue yarn to complete up to round 8 for the body color.

Adding Features:

Eyes: Attach 6mm safety eyes approximately five stitches apart, two rounds above where the color changes from white to pink/blue.
Magnet: Place a magnet between the eyes using glue to keep it in position.

Closing the Body:

Decreases: Start decreasing by single crocheting two stitches together (sc2tog) around the circle to close up the body.
Final Closing: Once the opening is small enough, cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Using a darning needle, weave through the remaining stitches and pull to close. Secure and weave in end.

Fins and Tail:

Fins (Make 2): Chain 2, then single crochet into the second chain from the hook. Fasten off, leaving a tail for sewing.
Tail (Make 2): Start with a magic ring, make two sc and then a double crochet (dc) into the ring. Close the magic ring and fasten off, leaving a tail for attaching to the body.

Assembly:

Attach the fins and tails to each side of the whale body using the yarn tails and a darning needle.
Stuff the whale before completely closing the body, ensuring not to overstuff.

Final Touches:

Blush: Use pink yarn to add blush just below the eyes by threading through and tying off inside the body.
Keychain & Letters: Attach metal letters to the keychain and then attach the keychain to the top of the whale.

Notes:

Ensure the magnets align when the whales are placed together so they "kiss."
Customize the whales with additional accessories or different yarn colors as desired.
