These are forever my favorite animals to crochet. They always look super cute with their big eyes! Back in the day, we had a shop full of colorful cephalopod plushies called Squittle and I still love that name.
This was one of the first octopus designs I came up with and I always wanted to write down the pattern, but it doesn’t exactly follow standard crochet rules. I also never count my stitches and just wing it… 😉 I'm sure there's a way to make it no-sew but I don't mind all the sewing. It's still a classic.
Here are some Squittle relics!
Lately, I’ve been experimenting with different yarns and textures to see what works best. I still love making panda bear octopuses and using whatever supplies I have on hand, like felt and scrap yarn. The chunky and acrylic yarn combo was definitely an interesting experiment!
