Crochet Pattern:
We will be working in a spiral, which means we will not end each round with a slst. We will start the next round continuously. Which is why we will need a stich marker to identify the 1st stitch of each round.
Round1: Magic ring, 8sc on the magic ring (8sts)
Round2: 2sc on each stitch around (16sts)
Round3: (Working on blo only) 1sc in blo of one st and 2sc on the blo of next st around (24sts)
We will work our tentacles later in these front loops. From Round4 on we will work on both the loops.
Round4-8: 1sc on each stich around (24sts)
Round9: 1sc on one st and sc2together on next 2sts around (16sts)
Round10: sc2together in every 2sts around (8sts)
Place safety eyes between 7th and 8th round, with 5st spaces in between.
Fill with polyfil!
Round11: sc2together in every 2sts around (4sts). Slst to close the opening. Fasten off. Weave the ends!
Working on the tentacles:
Attach the yarn to any of the flo of Round3
*Ch12 , 2dc on 3rd ch from the hook, 3dc on the next ch, alternate between 2dc in one ch and 3dc on the next ch for next 8 ch . Slst on next 2sts *. Repeat *to*around . Slst on the last flo. Fasten off and weave the ends.
Use a dovet stick to tuck in odd ends of the yarn.
