(This is 5 written crochet patterns/tutorial only, not a finished product. The photo's are examples of what can be made from this pattern. Yarn and color is up to you. The yarn you use determines finished size.) You are buying written directions to make five stand-up, 3-D, corals-Tentacled Cup Coral, Tube Sponge, Flowerpot, Fan Coral and a Hyperbolic strip to fill in spaces in your coral reef. They require no fabric stiffener to stand up. With these directions, you can crochet your own coral reef using any yarn in any color you want. These directions are easily modified to match your needs, home decor, creative style and artistic license. You will get 5 downloadable, .pdf files with written, step by step directions with photos immediately upon payment. It can be printed out. It is in American English, with very simple directions, using nothing more than basic crochet stitches, using Standard US crochet terminology. There is no diagram, no left hand directions and no UK conversions. Size of your finished coral will change with the type of yarn and size of hook you choose to use, there is no gauge to follow. Yarns and hooks that I used for examples is given. I would rate this a beginner project. If you run into problems, don't worry, I am available to personally help you, just let me know.
