Crochet A Tiny Turtle - A Little Procrastination

It’s the middle of finals week for me - everyone else I know has finished their finals, and I’m stuck with 2 more taking me all the way to Friday of finals week and the afternoon before I graduate to finish college. Can’t be a slacker in the end apparently - meaning this week has been filled with lots of studying (virology, immunology and physics - nothing light about it), some packing for my big move next week, and definitely some yarn work to keep me sane! I found a new favorite project that brings a smile to anyone’s face during these stressful times, and works up so fast it is the instant satisfaction I crave right now.

A tiny turtle! The shell is made in the round, in one complete piece. The head, legs and tiny tail are all spirals, and work up so fast you’ll have a herd of them (bale of turtles, apparently) before you know it! They are easy to make and perfect way to use up bits of yarn. I’ve made mine from Simply Soft and Sugar n Cream. Already have 2, and can’t wait to get going on a third. Any suggestions for names for these two little guys? Happy crocheting!
