The Baby Octopus No Sew Free Crochet Pattern Downloadable PDF is a 6-page pattern for a tiny octopus about 5 cm (2 inches) tall, worked in #6 bulky yarn with a 4mm hook. The file, designed by All From Jade, is marked for beginners and uses about 13 grams of yarn, 12mm safety eyes, and polyester fiberfill. A strand of pink yarn for cheeks is optional.
What is in the 6-page pattern
The pattern gives the full round-by-round instructions for the octopus body. You begin with a magic ring of 8 single crochet, increase to 18 stitches, work three plain rounds, then decrease to close. The eyes go between rounds 5 and 6, with three holes between them. Since the piece is worked in one continuous spiral, there are no separate parts to sew together.
Printing and using the PDF
Print the pattern on your chosen paper at actual size rather than fit-to-page so the stitch counts stay easy to follow. The PDF lists the hook, yarn, and other materials up front, and the rounds are numbered for quick reference. Keep the page with your yarn while you work, and mark off each round as you finish it.
