/diy/ - Do It Yourself

hey /diy/, first time I've ever posted here. I was wondering if anyone here had experience crocheting? I saw this hat (pic related) and wanted to buy it. Unfortunately, it no longer is sold by the maker except through ebay auctions which can reach over 200 dollars per hat and that's frankly obscene. I've never crocheted before, but the hat looks like it is assembled from a few basic parts (funnel type shape for body, pink rim for mouth, fins, white circles for eyes) so I was thinking I could maybe make it myself. if anyone has any tips or suggestions to help me learn how to make any part of this, I would be extremely appreciative.

here is a link to the original hat description: http://www.etsy.com/listing/90898933/made-to-order-magikarp-pokemon-crochet
