THIS PATTERN IS ADVANCED. IT IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS.

This pattern is written in ENGLISH and US crochet terms.
Once you purchase, the PDF will be available to download. Please wait a few moments for the transaction.

*THIS IS A PDF PATTERN ONLY! Not a finished product.*

Everything "whale" be alright with this cutie around! Whitney the Whale Shark is so chubby and cuddly, you'll have a fin-tastic time hanging with her!

When crocheted with worsted weight (category 4) yarn and a 3.5 mm crochet hook, the Whale Shark will measure 17"L x 13"W x 6"H.

Please keep in mind that this is an ADVANCED PATTERN. It takes time and work to make the speckled pattern on the shark's back, but it makes a beautiful finished product!

Again, this is a crochet PATTERN, not a finished product. If you do not crochet and you would like a physical "Whitney the Whale Shark Crochet Stuffed Animal", please message me and I will make a private listing for you so you can purchase it.

This is a 13 page PDF pattern that includes 19 pictures, and several pro-tips to make your crocheting experience a breeze!

Put the stuffed animal in a pillowcase and close the hole with a hair tie. Put it in your washing machine on a gentle/delicate cycle using cold water and a very small amount of detergent so it will smell good. Let it air dry until it is completely dry. You may have to reshape the stuffed animal slightly.
You can surface treat any stains.

THE BEST TIMES TO MESSAGE ME:
8:00 AM – 9:00 PM (PT)

Crocheting a stuffed animal depends on the size and yarn availability. If you purchase a "Mini Creation", it may take 2-5 days. Larger stuffed animals may take longer.
If it takes 7 days or more to make your stuffed animal, this means I have had a backlog of orders. I take my time with each stuffed animal to make sure it is high quality, durable, and well made!
If your animal is for an upcoming occasion and you need it by a certain time, let me know and I'll make time to complete your order by the time you need it.

- Place the stuffed animal in a pillowcase and close the hole with a hair tie or rubber band.
- Put it in your washing machine on a gentle/delicate cycle using cold water, and a very small amount of detergent.
- Tumble dry low (still in the pillowcase) or let it air dry out of the pillowcase until it is completely dry.
You may have to reshape the animal slightly.
You can surface treat any stains.

My first time alternating colours of yarn and it turned out great! I had questions for Julia as I was unsure about the symmetry. Julia answered and reassured me. Such a great pattern!

This was my first jacquard crochet project. It took me a few attempts to get the color changes look right, but the instructions were really clear. I finally got it right and the finished product looks exactly like the photo!

This whale is so cute. I’ve only crocheted about 4 other stuffed animals and after starting over a couple times (due to my own miscounting) I got in the grove and the pattern was easy to follow. The video on how to do the color changes was very helpful and I didn’t have any problems with it. It was way more convenient than cutting and tying off the yarn every time. Any other mistakes I made (like I over stuffed the mouth a bit and sewed a fin in slightly the wrong spot) are my own fault and had nothing to do with the quality of the pattern. Even with my mistakes I think it turned out so cute!

This pattern was really fun! It took me a bit to properly grasp the color changes and such, but once I did, it went by like a breeze. I love the final stuffy I made!
