Crochet Octopus Amigurumi Patterns
Crochet octopus amigurumi patterns make a round head with eight curly tentacles, usually formed by chaining and working increases back along the chain so it spirals. Octopuses are fast, cheerful projects and a popular toy for newborns. Keep tentacles short and securely attached if the octopus is intended for a baby.

How do you make curly octopus tentacles?
Make curly octopus tentacles by chaining a length, then working two or three single crochets into each chain back toward the head. The extra stitches crowd along one edge and force the strip to twist into a corkscrew. Fewer stitches per chain give looser curls.
