Scales
With shaded yarn or with the color
you decide to use...
Don't feel overwhelmed, I'm going
to tell you the best way to move
forward in this important part of
the project.

crochet the following stitches (3dc,

by little...

You will sew more or less every two


rounds (of the body) and only on the
dorsal part of the pangolin, you must
make sure that the scales cover the

chains… IMPORTANT...sew this first
piece starting from the tail end,
that way you can calculate how
many pieces you will need to cover

the body...

The stitches are made only where


you can see the pins, you do not
need to sew all the stitches, you will
find that it is very simple, and you
will advance quickly as you practice.

Go forward until the tail is finished,


then pause because we are going to
sew the legs first, make sure that the
nails are facing forward...
Your pangolin should look like the
previous picture, now let's continue
covering the body, make sure to
cover with scales the union of the
legs with the body to make it look
more beautiful...

For the final part of the head, it is a


good idea to make pieces of 3 or 4
scales to make it more precise, you
should make 5 chains for each scale
you need...

Así deberá verse tu pangolín…


Now we are going to sew the nose,
the triple hdc increase we made goes
down...
