Pattern Inspiration

Baby sea turtles are not only super adorable but also pretty tough, as they have to overcome many obstacles early in life on their own to survive. Even though they start off inside dry sand, they're spending the majority of their life in the ocean. When they hatch, their shells are still slightly soft - just like the ones from these crocheted ones! The shell will then harden as they grow older.
