Amigurumi Baby Octopus Free Pattern:
YARN UNDER
1- Insert the hook in the next stitch. Yarn under the hook and pull through.
2- Complete a single crochet stitch as usual: yarn over and draw through all loops.
BOBBLE STITCH
yo = yarn over
yo, insert hook in next stitch, yo, and pull through (3 loops on hook), yo pull through 2 (2 loops on hook).
Repeat this 3 more times or until you have 5 loops on your hook always in the same stitch.
yo, pull through all 5 loops.
INVISIBLE DECREASE
1- Insert the hook under the front loop of the first single crochet stitch. Do not yarn over.
2- Insert the hook under the front loop of the second stitch and pick it up onto the hook.
3- Yarn over and draw through the first two loops. Yarn over and draw through all loops.
HOW TO CLOSE AN OPENING
1- Once the last st is done, cut the yarn and leave a long tail and pull it out. Insert the needle from the outside going in (in the front loop only of the next st).
2- Now insert the needle from the inside going out in the next front loop.
3- Repeat around and pull on the yarn tail half way through. Hide the tail once the opening is closed.
1- mr of 8 sc (=8)
2- 8 inc (=16)
3- (3 sc, 1 inc) x4 (=20)
4 – 7 (4 rounds). 20 sc (=20)
8- (3 sc, 1 dec) x4 (=16)
Secure the eyes between rounds 5-6 with 3 sts in between.
9- BLO (pm in the 1st front loop of this round and do not remove it): 16 sc (=16)
Fasten off and cut a long yarn tail. Stuff the head and close the opening (see ‘’Tips’’ section).
Now making the tentacles…
Hold the head up and join a new piece of yarn into the front loop where the st marker is (you can
remove the marker now).
1- ch 1 (does not count as a st), bo into the same st, sl st into the next 2 front loops repeat everything
between – around. (total of 8 bo)
PLEASE NOTE: the bo st should always be made in the SAME stitch as the 2nd sl st. That means that
there will be a bo made every other stitch.
Cut a short yarn tail, make a knot with the yarn tails and hide them inside the head.
Optional: embroider some cheeks under the eyes and a smile between rounds 5-6.
