21. [Sc, dec] around (12)
23. Dec around (6)
24. Fasten off (FO)
Note: The FO point should be approximately in the midline of the back of the head. Yes, it sort of matters because it should have subtle cheeks and a slight nose bulge. Knowing where you are will help you stuff "strategically".
-------
Tail and Body:
**The tail and body are all one piece. You will need to crochet each piece of the tail fin separately and then combine and continue into the body.
Tail:
1. Magic ring: 4
2. [Sc, inc] around (6)
3. [Sc, inc] around (9)
4. [Sc 2, inc] around (12)
5. [Sc 3, inc] around (15)
6. [Sc 4, inc] around (18)
7-8. Sc around 2 times (18)
9. [Sc 4, dec] around (15)
10. [Sc 3, dec] around (12)
11. [Sc 2, dec] around (9)
12. FO
Only fasten off for the first fin. For the second fin, repeat steps 1-11 and then continue as follows:
13. Sc, dec, sc, dec
This next step will connect the first and second fin together on one side. Insert hook into a stitch on the first fin and continue as follows:
14. Sc, dec, sc, dec, sc, dec
One side of the tail should be connected now. Insert hook back into the stitch after the connection on the second tail and continue as follows:
15. Sc, dec
Both fins should now be connected and you should have a continuous round of 12 stitches.
16. Sc around (12)
17. [Sc 3, inc] around (15)
18. [Sc 4, inc] around (18)
19. [Sc 5, inc] around (21)
20-22. Sc around 3 times (21)
At this point, add as many stitches as necessary to make the beginning of your round at approximately the mid-line of the underside of the body.
23. Sc 6, inc, sc 3, inc, sc 3, inc, sc 6 (24)
24. Sc 5, inc, sc 4, inc, sc 2, inc, sc 4, inc, sc 5 (28)

Back Spikes:
1. Ch 22, turn
Starting at the third chain from the hook:
2. [Sl st, hdc, dc, sl st] repeat 5 times
3. FO
-------
Collar:
**Before doing this step, it might be wise to assemble at least Vaporeon's head and body so that you can determine how long to make the collar around the head.
**The number of stitches you will need will be a multiple of 2 plus 1 additional stitch (ie. 18+1, 20+1, 26+1). Chain and measure around the head to decide how many stitches to use. I ended up using about 27 stitches.
1. Ch 27 (or however many stitches you determined), turn
Start at second chain from the hook:
2. Sc 26 (your number -1)
3. [ Sl st, (dc, tc, dc all in next stitch)] repeat [] to the end
4. FO
-------
Head fins:
Ears: (make 2)
Yellow:
1. Ch 5, turn
Start at second ch from hook after each row for the following steps until otherwise specified.
2. Dc, sc 3, ch 1, turn (4)
3. Sc 4, ch 1, turn (4)
4. (Dc, hdc) in the same stitch, sc 2, ch 1, turn (5)
5. Sc 4, (sc, dc) in the same stitch, ch 1, turn (6)
6. (Dc, dc) in the same stitch, sc 5 (7)
7. FO
Blue:
Insert hook in the corner of the longest edge and single crochet along the edge.
Head fin:
Yellow:
1. Ch 7, turn
2. Sl st, sl st, sc, hdc, dc ch 1, turn (5)
3. Sl st, sc 2, hdc, (dc, dc) in the same stitch, ch 1, turn (6)
4. Sc 4, sl st, sl st (6)
5. Sl st one more on the edge to create a downward sloping of the fin
6. FO
Blue:
Insert hook in the corner of the longest edge and single crochet along the edge.

the ear and head fins are throwing me off. i think the math is a bit wonky. Here's where i get confused:
ears row 4 it says there is 5 stitches in the row but when i counted i only came up with 4 which then throws the other rows off.
in the head fin it says to chain 7 but the next row only has 5 stitches so should you start in the 3rd chain or are we supposed to have a little extra chain hanging off?

I added a 3rd sc. works just fine

I am from the Netherlands, and if I want to make this, I have to translate so I have to know if you are American or English.. Cause there is a difference somewere..
Thanks!

I'm not op but I garantee this is the american version. I'm doing it right now!

I'm having a bit of a problem with the head and ear fins. I feel like the number of stictches confuses me for ex. Like the head fin on the 3rd step. You have 5 stitches and you supposed to end up with 6 , when during the process you decrease twice(in same stitch . Also when you decrease twice you get 3 stitches right ?

dc stands for double crochet, not decrease!

Hi I love this pattern so much.
Here is my version of it, I changed the ears a bit, hope you like it

Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Your pattern for the Ear Fins is perfect for a project I'm currently working on! I was having so much trouble figuring out how to go about them and your pattern has helped steer me in the right direction! Your Vaporeon is also super cute!

Do you join each round with a sl st, then ch1 or just worked in continuous rounds? thanks,
These are amazing, going to make them all this week, with 2 strands of DK yarn to get them big enough to take up my whole fireplace mantle. And the needle felting is fantastic, I did not even know what it was until I saw this, so that's another craft I'll be taking up. Thank you so much for sharing these for free. You should sell patterns on ravelry, with such high quality they would sell themselves.

Wow!! This is by far the best pattern I've seen for one of the eeveeloutions!

When creating the head, do you start with the dark blue and if so when would you switch to the light blue? Im just a little confused on that part, can't wait to make this. Awesome pattern.

The dark blue on the head is needle felted. I hate changing colors so I usually avoid it when I can

Maybe I am going crazy, but I'm attempting the back spikes and in order to get 6 spikes (as in the picture) with each spike taking up 5 stitches and requiring 2 stitches for the first turn... Should the chain not be 32 instead of 22?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think the math should be right unless I'm going crazy too
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Maybe. o-o I may be going crazy... But I used 32 stitches and it filled up Vaporeon's back better (for my Vaporeon, at any rate).

Nah, since I don't really specify gauge, I'm sure there's a chance for some pretty significant variance. Whatever happens to work out for you though!

Yaaaaay! I'm so excited to make one! I've decided to go back and make all my other eveelutions derpy. XD

Ooooh, what an adorable baby here~ I love the little fins and ruffle around the neck, ahhh. <3
I really do want to snuggle with your baby pokemon, they're precious. And they seem like just the right size to sit on a shelf or line a headboard.
(I'm hoping this summer I can sit down and try a ton of your patterns out. I'll have to let you know how they turn out! I might make some as gifts for people, since I want to make the but am running out of space, but it'll be so fun to try them out. <3)

Thanks!! I hope you'll get the chance to! I do like their size for precisely that reason

I'm not usually the crochet type person, cause I got problems understanding all the stiches and patterns and stuffs, but I GOT to give this one a try! NO MATTER WHAT!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yayy!! I hope you give it a shot! I actually think knitting is harder than crochet
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I will try it out as soon as I've finished up the amigurumi doll I've been working with forever. Can't wait cause Vaporeon is the best Pokemon EVVAH!
Knitting is harder but at the same time less confusing, if that makes any sense

Haha I dunno.. I was pretty darn lost knitting

You must have extraordinary patience in order to write all this down while making it. Kudos to you.

You're most welcome!
I write crochet patterns myself so I understand just how much work goes into them!
You should be proud.
