TY SO MUCHHHH!!!!!!
Had a big fight with the yarn on closing the magic circle but in the end managed and my octopus is the cutest ever!!!
Awww yay!! Great job!!
If you will make more, I recommend chaining 3 and do one sc on the first Stich and just put your single crochet there :)
Same😂😂😂😂
@@He4rtinthecl0udsI usually chain two and use the second chain from the hook as a magic ring!!
Same!😂 I ripped my yarn twice trying to make a magic ring, but now I am successfully creating a cute octopus!🥰
I never thought something so cute would be so easy to make. Thank you for the tutorial!!! Can't wait to make it!!!!
Thanks Jonas! Can't wait to see yours
As a complete beginner, this was my first project that i've been able to complete! you talked it through super easily. I got a little confused while doing the tentacles but just found a YT video to go over the HDC & DC to see what i needed to do! I dropped and added a few sticthes by accident but im still so happy with it! thank you!!!

thank you!!
Would've been nice if u wrote down the pattern itself
Thank you so much! This is my first ever amigurumi project. I made a baby blanket and had no idea what to do with the leftover yarn. So a cute little octo to accompany the blanket is perfect!
Ahhh oh my gosh I love this!! It prob looks adorable ❤️
Loved making this little guy! It was difficult to work in the back loops but once I got the hang of it I was good! Love this pattern ❤
I haven't started yet and that back loop is what's making me nervous....I'm a super newbie to crochet!!
I think this is finally the nicest looking amigurumi I’ve ever made. I’ve been crocheting for 7 months and picked up on it really quick but amigurumi keeps being a struggle for me. When there’s separate pieces you have to see on, mine always get crooked. So this completely one piece little guy was perfect for me to make :) I love him
hi!! I love this video and I know this was a long time ago but... please make a fat dog plush if you haven't please!!! I just found your channel a few days ago when I started crocheting and ever since, I've been watching your videos!! I love your videos and hard work you put into them.. thank you!!
Aww thank you! Definitely will keep it in mind for the future
~Here is how to do the stitches if anyone needs it~
*Single Crochet (SC):* Insert your hook, YO and pull up a loop, YO and pull through two loops on hook
*Double Crochet (DC):* YO, insert your hook, YO and pull up a loop, YO and pull through two loops, YO and pull through the remaining two loops on the hook
*Half Double Crochet (HDC):* YO, insert your hook, YO and pull up a loop, YO a and pull through remaining three loops on hook.
*Increase (INC):* Create a stitch inside of chain and then another stitch inside the same chain. (Basically two stitches on top of each other.)
*Decrease (DEC):* Insert hook inside of the first loop of the chain only and then inside of the next chain front loop only. Then YO and pull through two loops.
*Magic Ring (MR):* Wrap the yarn around two fingers in an ‘X’ shape. Then insert the hook underneath the first piece of yarn and grab the second piece with the hook. Pull through and create a chain.

Hope this helps❤
omg!! you are incredible, thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much, this is my first attempt, I am 56 and only taught myself how to crochet last week, by watching a beanie tutorial and copying. The tentacles have got me flummoxed especially going into one stitch but I will get there. I am going to have to ‘properly’ learn each stitch instead of replicating them ‘parrot fashion’, after this project, oh and master the magic ring, I do not have enough functioning fingers on my left hand, I think I need 8 😂 Again thank you, wish me luck!
I love how detailed this tutorial is, and how just professional the video is. I have been working on teaching my younger sister to crochet as well as a few friends and this was one we worked on together 💗 while I am more than experienced with the final parts of it and working into that back loop, it was challenging for my sister to get it, but by stitch 4 she felt that she got it down pretty well. I just want to thank you for how clear this video was. While I am good for the tips and tricks, I lack the skills of explaining the “how-to.” Thank you!
Couldn't sleep so made a tiny one but when I finished I realised that they are not even by 1 row but it makes me love him more 😂❤️
hahaha aww!! ❤️
THIS IS SO CUUTE😭😭 thank you so much, made my little friend in an hour
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I was searching and searching for a good octopi pattern and I just couldn't find one. Then I saw this pattern. The octopuses are SO ADORABLE!!!!!!!! I've made 2 already. Planning to make more in the future. 🐙😃
Awwww oh my gosh yay!! This makes me so happy hehe enjoy your little octo army ❤
Mine turned out absolutely perfect!! Loved it thanks a lot
Aww Im so glad, yay!
Mine turned out soo good. It looks almost exactly like the blue one you showed us at the end. I used a blue yarn and it came out smaller. I luv it. Thx so much for the pattern. I’m giving it to my bestie tomorrow. Xx
Aww I'm so glad you loved it! Thanks so much ❤️
So easy to follow along and make. Although I had slight trouble trying to finding stitches with the velvet yarn, but I still love it. 😊
Awww yay :) so glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much❤️
This is by far one of my favorite patterns ever!!! I love it soo much!!🫶🏼🫶🏼
thank you so much!! this is the first project i have completed and it only took me about 2 hours! i did have to look up increase and decrease stitches as well as refer to other videos throughout to refresh my memory but i got there!! good luck everyone 😊
aaaahh thank you so much this is the first amigurumi I've gotten to turn out right! I made three today for gifts tomorrow and it was so super quick and easy.
Aww yay!! Im so glad!! They are quite addicting and look so cute together🥰
i love my new octopus!! first crochet project i tried with blanket yarn
I love this pattern, it’s so cute. I had the biggest trouble with working the BLO for round 14, I kept getting completely lost and missing stitches so I had to keep winging it. Eventually I had to start putting a stitch marker in every back loop so I made sure I hit every stitch (I’m not a complete beginner but I think the velvet yarn is what made this part tougher for me)
I bought some thin velvet from Amazon and am making them with 2 colors. 1 with pink and yellow and the other one with brown and yellow. Thank you for sharing this pattern, super cute and easy.
thank you Genna! you're the best I don't even know what hdc means but I learn a lot from you now I made my first octo! thank you SO much!
Ugh could I love this pattern more??? Thank you for making this so easy to follow and accessible for new beginners like me!
Aww of course!! So glad you loved it🥺❤️
thank you for adding this tutorial on your channel. I'm a crocheter myself so thanks you so much for the vids!!!!!!

Okay ngl. I had doubts, but as soon as i finnished the last round and looked at it.
My heart melted, he is the cutest thing ive ever made😍
Thank you so much for this amazing pattern!❤❤❤❤
okay i just need to put this out there, how much easier it was to follow your pattern but it was the perfect size and was just exactly what i was looking for when it cme to making. perfect octopus. thank you
Oh my gosh this is the sweetest comment, Im so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much❤️
When I made my first octopus with your pattern I made it a little wrong so it got like a cute little but crack in between its tentacles 😂😂❤️🐙 I really like the pattern that you made , good job! ❤️❤️
hahaha aww!! thanks so much! ❤️
Oh wow thank you so much I got a bit discouraged when I didn't have the right number of stitches so I just ignored it cuz im lazy 😂 then I put a smile on it and im in love thank you 😊
My friends gave me some yarn because I am obsessed with crocheting, and this project would be a great thank you gift for them! Thank u! 😊❤
Aww wait I love this!! Of course❤️❤️

I love this pattern!!! I HATE seeing parts together. It was a little tough finding the back loops to go through with the fuzzy yarn. But this pattern is so cute and really easy overall!
Aww I'm so glad
I absolutely loved making this octopus so cute
I loved this tutorial! Would love for you to make more tutorials on anything you crochet. You explained well and were easy to follow. Thank you so much 😊

Hey crochet queen it me again I just wanted to say that now I’m obsessed crocheting your octopus pattern 🐙 Thanks you 😍😍😍😍😊❤
Hi, Jenna. I followed your pattern and made the baby octopus. Thank you so much for sharing. Barb
Thank you so much. I’ve came out perfect, you are definitely a great teacher!
Aww Im so glad!! :’) thanks so much🥰
for the decrease stitches can you do invisible decreases
Yes!! ❤️
Amazing tutorial, one question though. Is there a way to enlarge this design without using a super chunky yarn? I can make the body larger but I cannot figure out how to make the leg parts any larger?
Thank you so much :) not that Im aware of :( its hard to make the tentacles bigger since they are HDC/DC based. Maybe using TR?
She's EVERYTHING! So cute!
awww thank you so much!!
Super easy, great instruction with written directions, awesome!
Awww thanks so much, so glad you liked! 💕
😍I really want to do this but I'm such a visual learner and you go so fast 😆😆 I suck at audio/written directions.
Aww Im sorry, I definitely realized this tutorial was wayy too fast for complete beginners so I’ll deff be much slower in my next tutorial🥰 Im so bad at written instructions haah
No worries ! And oooo !I'll be looking forward to your next tutorial ✨✨
Thank you for the cute tutorial I loved making these I’m definitely making an army
Aww of course!! so happy to hear you're making your own octo army ❤️
Love the tutorial! Super easy to follow along as a beginner. But, for some reason mine do not come out looking "round" :( they come out a bit longer - looking more squid like. Still cute lol but I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong. Please help if you have the time! ◡̈
maybe you added a few extra rows? or maybe you didn't do the decrease step before the tentacles? hope that helps ♥️ thank you!!
I would love to see a tutorial on how to make a chubby cat
By the way I've made this one and I love it you are so creative❤😊😊
Awww thank you!!❤️❤️
Love this pattern, so easy to make! Just made a pink one with baby bee Adore-A-Ball in pink a boo. I would like to see you do a tutorial on a sloth. A kitty or puppy. All small like your octopus.
Aww Im so glad you enjoyed and made one!! Thank you! Deff want to make more mini patterns hehe thanks for the ideas🥰
I’ve literally just made this!! Amazing! Super easy pattern I love it!! 🐙 😍 I will share on Instagram so you can see xxx
