There are a couple of wallets I know of that do support importing a 12 word seed phrase for Shelley era Cardano wallet:
Eternl Wallet
Atomic Wallet</p>

Yoroi wants 15 words from me, but I only wrote down 12. I know it was a Shelley wallet, and can see all details about my Cardano.

Can I restore my account without seed phrase?

Yoroi uses 15 words for its seed phrase. You did probably used Daedalus to generate it. I recommend you to try to use [Daedalus](https://daedaluswallet.io/) to restore it.
