Who hasn’t always wanted to crochet a moray eel? I’ve loved them since I saw Flotsam and Jetsam in The Little Mermaid :)

Pattern difficulty is easy to intermediate, as it includes a lot of different stitches and some shaping of the body. The finished eel measures about 36 cm from nose to tail.

• One pair of 10 mm safety eyes is needed
• A couple of stitch markers can be useful

Exact gauge is not important, as long as you choose a hook and yarn that create a firm fabric. The stuffing should not show through the stitches.
