Mental health is more important than ever, especially for kids. By purchasing this reversible octopus pattern, you are not only creating a silly but straightforward way to communicate your mood with those around you but also supporting sick kids. $1 from the sale of each pattern will be donated to Extra Life, a charity raising money for kids at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.

This pattern is straightforward and highly customizable. You should know how to do a single crochet (US), increase, and decrease. The pattern does involve some sewing, but all pieces are attached at one seem. The arms are a good intro to color changing and offer plenty of chance to practice while hiding all your ends.
