Mermaids are mythical, magical creatures that always bring a smile to your face. Perhaps the only thing more likely to do is a rainbow-combine the two and you've got a practically perfect pattern!
This crochet pattern uses a shell stitch that looks a lot like the scales of a mermaid. In addition to crochet shell stitch, this pattern uses post stitches as well as basic stitches, including double crochet.
What's really neat about this crochet pattern is that it's designed as a classic mermaid tail blanket, but it can also be adapted to wear as a scarf.
