This octopus pattern is not only adorable and soft, but is so easy to whip up. It's a great project for beginner crocheters and is a great introduction to making amigurumi! This octopus duo includes instructions for both a large and a small octopus, making an adorable little family.

This pattern requires knowledge of single crochet, basic increases and decreases, and crocheting in the round. However, even for beginner crocheters, this is a simple and quick project so it's a great way to try it out even if you're new! It requires size 6 super bulky yarn, but can easily be adapted to different yarns and colors as long as you adjust the hook size appropriately.

Finished baby octopus measures approximately 3" across and the large octopus measures approximately 6" across.
