I love how mine is turning out but you totally lost me a couple rounds after the eyes, and I'm an experienced crocheter! I hope you can do another upload showing how to do this on the worsted weight yarn or just a yarn thats not so fuzzy.

[@mariahg.7633]

If possible, could you let me know how many stitches should be at the end of the round before we start the arms?

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

So glad you enjoyed making this Octopus! I just put a note in the description of this video saying: PATTERN CORRECTION Rnd 14: Hdc 2, sc-inc, sc 2, x3, sc-inc, hdc 2, hdc-inc, x4. (32).

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Aw, thanks so much!!🥰❤

[@jeepgirl4984]

This is a cute pattern. Using a solid yarn that’s not fluffy would be ideal for a video and I had a hard time following the underside of the arms. I wasn’t sure if you meant to alternate the term stitch and chain as the same meaning but it was too fast for me to follow and understand

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Thanks for your input! I plan to not use speckled yarn in the future! Please feel free to email me: [e-mail] if you need any help and I would be happy to assist you!

[@ssicamon1927]

This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you so much! I'm fairly new to crochet and have only made about 3 things so far. You made this really easy for a beginner like me. I wish that the yarn used was a solid color, to make it a bit more clear to follow along. Regardless, I still got it finished and it is absolutely adorable. I made it as a gift for my aunt and she loved it! ❤

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Yay!! I am SO glad to hear that you enjoyed this tutorial! Thanks for letting me know about the variegated yarn, I will try not to use that in future videos! I am SO glad to hear that your aunt loved the octopus!🐙🥳🫶

I just made this and love it!!!! I didn’t do the suction cups, but he’s gorgeous! I can’t remember which row it is, but it’s supposed have 24 stitches. I ended up three stitches short so I had to repeat the last repetition one last time. Thanks for this incredible pattern! Love it!

The multi colored or tweed yarn is very hard to see the stitches on camera in order to follow along. A solid color would be much better.

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Thanks for your feedback I will take that into consideration for the future!

Wonderful! I don't have a 7mm hook. Is it better to use 6mm or 8mm?

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

I am so glad you like it! The hook you’ll want to use will depend on your tension, let me explain…If you naturally have a little bit of tighter tension I would probably use a 8 mm hook, however if you have a little bit more loose tension like I tend to have I would use a 6mm hook so there are no holes when you stuff the octopus. Let me know if you have any other questions!🧶❤

[@scrapA]

Thank you very much❤

[@ryleemock1384]

My first one is missing an arm😂😂😂 he’s still freaking adorable though. Time to make 10 more!!

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Haha, I am glad you like it! Hope the other 10 get an 8th arm, lol 😂!! In all seriousness though, I am SO glad to hear you like it! ❤

[@Moonietie]

Hey is there a way to modify this so it has longer curly tentacles? Thank you

[@sweetcreekpatterns]

Yes! You would simple chain more for each tentacle, then when you do the edging just make sure to crochet a little on the tight side. Let me know if you have any more questions!

[@blainenewton9554]

Can you use size 4 yarn for the body?
