[@susanhazenfowler7698]

@@JuliePilgreen Me too....oh well still super cute!!

[@pecorino1]

Sameee

[@TheOddDuckDesigns01]

Haha one thing to help with that is counting your stitches yo make sure you have 18 when you start the tentacles

[@JojuAdedoyin-g7t]

😂

[@phebetn]

could you maybe do a ferret? theres no good tutorial for it and its my dream to make it and ur tutorials are always so good

[@leah.3502]

I've never tried crocheting before but after watching several tutorials of pretty much the same octopus and failing every time, you helped me to finally do it right! I'm so happy about my little friend 🐙

[@patmclucas3347]

Nubbie here. Did with you turned out great. Need work on my tension. Thx so much.

[@phoenix_dreamer]

This was so amazing! I had picked up a bunch of crochet supplies while I was pregnant but when I actually tried I got frustrated. 5 months later, I got the urge to crochet again today, and this was the first tutorial I picked. You taught me single stitches, double, increasing and decreasing, and a super detailed tutorial to follow! You even showed me the steps, which was so amazing as I went into it with 0 knowledge on how to crochet. I did use a different size yarn so my boi is a bit smaller, but he has 8 legs, is stuffed properly as you said to use more than I thought, and he’s closed up nicely!! Thank you so much and I can’t wait to do another one of your videos.

[@onecentcrochet]

I’m so happy to hear that this tutorial helped you!

[@23452121]

Hi can we do this with cotton yarn as well thin one

[@ChubbyChunkster]

You can do it with any type of yarn

[@snowygirl3171]

I reduced the twitches down to 15..works out perfectly..8 arms

[@flipxxalicatt]

I thought I was doing something wrong 😂

[@DK4L24]

I love your videos soooo much I also love the way you put the written pattern on the screen bc it also helps me read patterns!!

[@martaskinner2301]

Great tutorial!!! Thank you so much, my daughter loves her little friend 🐙

[@Laylasummer652]

Please do a hedgehog they are my favourite!!❤

[@beccaking5328]

For some reason on my last tentacles have 3 stitches left. How many tentacles are there supposed to be. I thought 8

[@onecentcrochet]

9 tentacles!

[@erinnix3197]

Yeah that confused me too. I think I'm just gonna slip stitch a couple stitches and make 8 instead. I'll put my eyes on the opposite side and make the extra space the back.

[@nini_bla]

I just checked mine and I got ten & I have no idea how but it looks right so whatever ig 😂

[@Lishy_589]

Thank you for sharing. Nice and easy to follow thank you 🥰🥰

[@hilalsahin613]

Hello, can you do a one elephant❤❤

[@natashah3697]

Did it perfectly 10/10

[@BevyBooBoo]

This was so good! I love your tutorials so much!

[@mildredshelton7532]

Thanks you for the pattern.

[@Made_By_Q]

This is a really cute pattern and I just made 1, it ended up with 18 tentacles so I thought “oh user mistake!” I just made another one and it also ended up with 18 tentacles. I followed the pattern exactly. I don’t know what I did wrong, and how you got 10 tentacles when there were 18 stitches. Please explain! Thanks! But they are still really cute! But please explain to me. Happy crocheting!

[@onecentcrochet]

Hi! You may have missed the slip stitch into the second stitch, rather than doing a tentacles into every stitch.

[@Made_By_Q]

@@onecentcrochet thanks! I did do the slip stitch, would I do 2? Like tentacle, slip stitch, slip stitch, tentacle? Thanks for responding to the first one!

[@Mr.Whopsiedaisy]

@@Made_By_Qyou would slip stitch, chain ten, increase back down the chain, slip back into your current stitch, and slip stitch into the next stitch. Repeat as follows. That would put a slip stitch between each tentacle, making 9 of them instead of 18! 🐙

[@katherinecarr9587]

I started amarigumi when I was nine, I used written patterns but they didn't work out. I made a with your video and it was the first time my plushie didn't look like a dying rat. lol

[@st4rz08]

once you made the 2nd sc in r1, how do u know which one is the very first chain u did?? I keep getting confused and I can’t find it which makes my r1 octopus look like a strawberry instead of a circle

[@floorsalad3988]

Maybe try a stitch marker? My daughter had trouble too

[@kenziegene8650]

Your my fav❤❤❤

[@littledolphin4146]

Nice 😊

[@TheOnlyP1p]

thanks!!

[@LisaRaimondo-t1d]

My tentacles are floppy and hanging down. How did you get yours to stay up like that? 🙁

[@bxslaurieee]

You either didn’t do much chains or you didn’t increase enough

[@Harper-g6k]

Why when your project is flat mine is a dome?

[@elliebumgarner9159]

My five tentacle no eye tissue filled octo is adorable

[@snowygirl3171]

They only have 8 arms

[@littledolphin4146]

Can you make one for a dog please 🙏 I subbed btw

[@GracieOverton-qu9ih]

Can anyone PLEASE tell me when it say x6 does it mean do that same thing six more times in the same round or 6 rounds of that same pattern I’m so confused 😭😭😭😊

[@GurpreetKaur-dj5pd]

Yes ×6 means to do the same pattern 6 more times

[@GurpreetKaur-dj5pd]

Not 6 rounds but 6 more times in the same row

[@kayleighdenny925]

Mine keeps coming out with 9 legs any suggestions

[@amarie2242]

Why does my head keep turning out like a cone 😢

[@user-cj3ii1oc1b]

hey i think youre probably using a hook too small for your yarn, and you might be making the stitches a bit too tight. try using a hook a size bigger, or even two sizes bigger if the head is very pointy. also try loosening your grip on the yarn to make the stitches a bit looser. experiment and tweak these adjustments until you get the result you like :)

[@JJ_Lowtyc3]

So this may be late, but something i do is skip the first round (6sc) and just do 12sc.(6inc), this usually helps.

[@Ur_soslay]

Hi ,commented on one of your other posted and u replied!! and I just wanna say thank you so much for showing the best patterns and if u can u pin me?

[@LegoFunKitty]

[@starrysdiary651]
