  • Size J/6.0mm 
  • Stuffing
  • Safety Eyes or felt eyes 
  • Yarn needle

This pattern uses weight 6 blanket yarn. Any yarn may be used, but your crochet hook size will be different. Use a hook 1-2 sizes smaller than your yarn calls for. This pattern is in US crochet terms.

This pattern is worked in continuous rounds and using a stitch marker to mark the first stitch is recommended. 

*Safety eyes are NOT recommended for children who are three years old or younger.

The narwhals pictured in the pattern are made with Bernat Blanket Yarn. 

 

We will begin with the tail fins:

Make 2:

R1: 4 sc in a magic ring

R2: (1 sc, inc) x 2 (6)

R3: (1 sc, inc) x 3 (9)

R4: (2 sc, inc) x 3 (12)

R5: 12 sc

R6: 6 dec (6)

Fasten off of the first piece only. After making the second, sc into the last stitch of round 6 of the first piece to attach them together. Continue onto round 7:

R7: 12 sc around both pieces

R8: 6 dec (6)

R9: 6 inc (12)

R10: 12 inc (24)

R11: (3 sc, inc) x 6 (30)

R12: (4 sc, inc) x 6 (36)

R13-20 (8 rounds): 36 sc

R21: (4 sc, dec) x 6 (30)

R22: (3 sc, dec) x 6 (24)

R23: (2 sc, dec) x 6 (18)

Insert safety eyes between rounds 21 and 22, ensuring that the tail fins are horizontal in relation to the eye placement. Stuff the narwhal.


R24: (1 sc, dec) x 6 (12)
R25: 6 dec (6)

 

Fins (Make 2)

R1: 4 sc in a magic ring

R2: (1 sc, inc) x 2 (6)

R3: (1 sc, inc) x 3 (9)

R4: (2 sc, inc) x 3 (12)

R5: (2 sc, dec) x 3 (9)

Do not stuff. Fold in half and 4 sc across.

Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Sew each one onto the side of the narwhal, approximately 3 rounds back and 3 rounds down from the eye.

 

Horn

R1: 4 sc in a magic ring

R2: (1 sc, inc) x 2 (6)

R3: (1 sc, inc) x 2 (9)

R4-5: 9 sc

Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Sew onto the narwhal between the eyes, approximately 1 round back from them. Stuff lightly as you sew.
