Meet Tiny Finley the Dolphin, a little-bitty dolphin who is more at home in rain puddles than the vast open sea.

He can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My Tiny Finley is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using 40 yards of the Bluebell colorway.

Tiny Finley is an advanced beginner-level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet, increases, decreases, and some seaming.

His construction is a little different than a typical Monster’s Toy Box pattern, but I have included plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your bitty dolphin.
