Lately I've been finding myself wanting to crochet as many sea critters as I possibly can. As tempting as this is however, I'd have to give away most of them, seeing as how I just don't have the room. I couldn't resist making myself a little stuffed narwhal though, and since this one turned out so well, I thought I'd share the pattern.
