AMIGURUMI LITTLE OCTOPUS FREE PATTERN

2: inc in all 6 st [12]
3: (sc, inc) x 6 [18]

Start crocheting the tentacles of the octopus. 1: BLO, slst in all 24 st [24] Stuff the body and head with fiberfill and continue stuffing as you go. Fasten off, leaving a yarn tail. Using a yarn needle, weave the yarn tail through the front loop of each remaining stitch and pull it tight to close. Weave in the yarn end (pictures 10-13). Go back to round 1 of the body and head. Pull up a loop of blue yarn in the first leftover front loop. Start crocheting the frill. Eye (make 2) Fasten off and weave in the yarn. As this part is very small, I highly recommended splitting a separate yarn tail into strands and using a single strand of off-white yarn to sew the eyes between rounds Finishing Touches Small Star
