Crochet Pattern – Sea Turtle Blanket

June 9, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

Summer comes around every year and so does the popularity of this turtle crochet blanket. Every summer it trends and you can see why, it is adorable! Especially popular with little mermaid loving girls and tweens.

Baby sea turtles crawling through the sand and to the ocean in this great crochet blanket. Made to look like the sand and ocean waves on the beach to replicate baby sea turtles on their first journey to the ocean. This blanket is great to give as a gift or make for yourself. You can see the pattern here. 

Sea turtles are adorable and precious to the ecosystem. My family and I were lucky enough to visit the sea turtle conservation centre in Bundaberg, Australia. It was a beautiful sight – baby turtles crawling across the sand to reach the ocean. This pattern captures that perfectly. I’ll definitely have to try this one out for myself.

Did you know that Sea turtles hatch throughout the year but mostly in summer? Hatchlings use a carbuncle (temporary egg tooth) to help break open the shell. After hatching, the young turtles may take 3 to 7 days to dig their way to the surface through the sand. Turtle Hatchlings usually wait until night to emerge from the nest and use the moonlight to guide them to the sea.  Sea turtles are vulnerable immediately after emerging from nests and before they reach the surf. Mortality rates during this brief period are very high. Conservation programs help the hatchlings to the water, often closing off the beaches for the breading period at night time.
