This octopus is HUGE! I followed the instructions for super bulky yarn, and he’s almost as big as my toddler. The way you join the tentacles to create the body is genius—it makes such a sturdy base.

Product description
A little ocean character. A big crochet project.
Crochet a giant octopus with eight curling tentacles, a rounded head and textured bobbles along the underside. The contrast between the smooth upper tentacles and the bobble details gives the design its distinctive look.
You'll make the tentacles individually, join them to form the body, then work the eyes, head and underbelly before finishing the assembly.
Choose your own main and contrast colors for a personal touch. Make an ocean-inspired display piece or a thoughtful handmade gift, using the supplies and construction guidance in the PDF.
