| Amigurumi Turtle Reviewed by ann on 2009-09-07 |

| I have just made one for my grown daughter for Christmas, and used multi-color beige/brown yarn for the upper shell. She's always loved turtles and used to have a 75 gal. tank with several turtles; now they're gone, but she will love having one of these. Thanks for a fun pattern!
