🐟 Create your own adorable 3D beaded puffer fish!
This is a digital PDF pattern (in English) that shows you how to make a small 3D puffer fish using odd-count circular peyote stitch, brick stitch, and the zipping method to assemble both sides.

Skill Level:
🔹 Best suited for ambitious beginners or intermediate beaders
🔹 Not recommended as a very first project - but if you’re patient and enjoy detailed craft work, you’ll do great!

Note to beginners:
This pattern involves techniques like circular peyote, brick stitch, and 3D assembly. It’s all clearly explained and illustrated step-by-step, but prior experience with beading or similar crafts will make the process much smoother.

Brilliant pattern for this cute little guy! This is the first time trying a 3D beaded design like this, and it was fun and easy to make with just a little patience. The diagrams in the pattern make it easy to follow along. My first couple of attempts came out too small for the felted stuffing ball, so my 9 year old suggested I try and bead around it. Genius trick I highly recommend using to get your size just right. I can't wait to make more in different colors 🥰
