Finding the right materials

In this pattern and tutorial I have used 4 strands of Magic glitz DK yarn at the same time and a 12mm crochet hook. You can use 4 strands of any DK yarn or use a chunky yarn, super bulky, even aran.

Use the correct hook for your yarn weight or work out the hook size if using multiple strands at once. You can use any hook or yarn and just follow the pattern along from the beginning and it will suit any yarn and hook.

Working with extra large hooks can be uncomfortable on your hands at first. I would suggest using an ergonomic hook that’s good for arthritis and will help keep away from any cramps while making your project.

An extra large hook set is great to add to your kit for all of the chunky, thick and quick projects like Afghans, Rugs and chunky sweaters etc.

This is my go to set of large crochet hooks

After you have found your perfect yarn to work with, I know so many options to choose from.

You can find the One evening Mermaid tail blanket pattern here. This will guide you in making any size mermaid tail you like. Perfect for those custom makes and getting the size and fit just right.

Follow along with the video tutorial and you can have a Mermaid tail in no time – well, one evening actually!

Never be stuck for a last minute gift again!

I'm trying to make 2 mermaid blankets on a 41 peg loom. These are for my twin granddaughters. Working on the tail of the 1st one.I like the way yours looks. It's so pretty. Do you know how to convert this to a loom knitting pattern? Thank you for any help you can give me.

  Hi Elaine, Im glad you like the pattern. Unfortunatley i have not used a loom before. I would not have a pattern to use for the blanket. I will maybe look into this in the future. Let me know if there is anything i can help you with. Thanks Emma

hi, I'd like to thank you for your pattern.I'm so excited to start with this project. But I have a doubt regarding hook size...25 mm? I've never seen one so huge....maybe in Italy the sizes are different. thank you in advanced for replying. Federica

hi! thank you for sharing your pattern! I'd like to try one for my daughter and maybe for me too. I have just a question before starting: when you say 4 strands of yarn, do you mean that I have to work with 4 skein of yarn? the hook size 25 mm is very huge...or have I to find a conversion chart to use correct hook size.
thank you in advance

Hello. Love the pattern and started on it as soon as I bought some yarn. But as I'm working on it I realize I may not have bought enough yarn. I just bought some from my local craft store and didn't think to check the size skins you used. I am making for a toddler and bought for skins of 100g so being a total of 400g. But if they are used all together is this enough, just one skin for the whole project?

  Hi, I cant tell if this is enough by grams if its 390 yards or more each ball and you use correct hook size. Yes this will be fine. You will be surprised how quickly it works up with very little yarn due to the hook size and stitch.
  Hope this helps
