      Hi Jeanette 🙂 You can view the patterns for free on our website and mobile app. PDF version itself is not free. Because it takes a lot of time to prepare the patterns. So, in spite of this fact all people who can’t pay for PDF patterns can view them on the website and make wonderful toys. We don’t hide the instructions. Hope for your understanding 🙂

    Thanks so much for the free patterns. These are sooooo cute!! By the way, do you have a written pattern for the other fruits? I think that the raspberry one is super adorable. I would do it myself, but I just started making my own patterns.

    okay, I was not prepared on how big it is, I thought it would be small, around the size of an apple but is definitely more a melon. Nevertheless I love it even more, because it is so big.
    Thank you so much for providing the pattern, I had lots of fun making a melon turtle 🙂

    Thank you for the pattern! It’s bigger than I expected haha. But I used medium sized yarn and a 3.5 mm crochet hook. The turtle is about a little bigger than an average hand. 🤗
