Naiad the Nudibranch

This PDF pattern has detailed instructions to help you make your own crochet nudibranch.

When I was in undergrad, I moved to Australia to study marine biology and fell in love with the colourful sea critters of the Great Barrier Reef. Most of my patterns are inspired by my love for the sea. Now, what’s a nudibranch, I hear you say? They are marine gastropods, and they look a lot like sea slugs. They come in a bunch of shapes and colours and I think they are the prettiest.
