Little Zoo Crochet Crocodile

In most zoos, you don't get to just walk up and pet the crocodile--at least not without some serious supervision. With the Little Zoo Crochet Crocodile, you can turn this scaly reptile into a soft, squeezable amigurumi animal that your child can feel free to venture off with. This free crochet toy pattern even gives this crocodile a differently colored stomach to give it a little variety. As crocodiles tend to be, it's a fairly long toy, coming in at a little over nine inches once finished. With the photo tutorial available, even newer crocheters can tackle this pattern.
