(46:56) Attach Fins and Tail (see next section for details)

(55:49) Add eyes into Rnd 6, sts 12 and 18. The eyes should be about 6 sts apart.

Rnd 10: [sc 1, invdec 1] 6 times (12)

Stuff mostly.

Rnd 11: invdec in each st (6)

Stuff fully. Cut the yarn, pull through, and sew closed.

I like sewing on the fins first because they’re slightly easier to know where they’re sewn on.
See video tutorial at (46:56) for detailed instructions for this section.

For the left fin, attach just before Rnd 7. One tail end attached to the back of the fin should go into st 24 (the last st) and the other 2 sts away in st 22. Double knot together on the inside and cut close.

For the right fin, the back tail end should go into st 11, and the front 2 sts away in st 13. Double knot together on the inside and cut close.

For the tail, insert one tail end just next to the pm (place marker) in Rnd 7, specifically st 3.
Insert the other tail end on the opposite side of the pm (specifically st 5), and exit from where the pm is (st 4). Go around the center of the tail and insert back into the same st (st 4). Double knot both tail ends together, pull tightly, and cut close.
