MAGIKARP FLASHLIGHT COVER

This was a request from a customer on Etsy. This is designed to fit a flashlight with a 3.75-inch lens and is 7-inches long. This is adaptation of my Magikarp plush pattern to have an opening at its mouth so that a flashlight can be inserted. This was not easy to make since I did not have the flashlight that was going to be inserted. This pattern includes the color list for both Magikarp and Shiny Magikarp.
