Wesley the Whale Crochet Amigurumi Pattern (English)

I’ve made Wesley the whale using a super chunky #6 weight plush yarn. This is ideal for a big soft and huggable toy and is a quick make, you can make your whale in a few hours. Wesley can be made with or without the white underside piece, you can decide. He is 12.5 inches long in super chunky weight yarn - 19.5 inches long in jumbo - (when made with the recommended materials).
