I have been asked several times for the pattern to make these baby crocs.
SO HERE THEY ARE! Want this as a printable pdf? Get it here
This pattern is given for free, but of course I would love it if you would donate something for the time I've put into this for you.
You can do what you want with the finished piece, apart from mass production. But the pattern itself is mine and cannot be sold or shared without my permission.
