Pattern Summary
The Mini Crochet Octopus Amigurumi is an easy crochet project even for beginners. We create an adjustable ring with a medium-weight yarn and a 3.5-millimeter crochet hook. The first round begins with six single crochet stitches in the loop, followed by a pull on the yarn tail to close the loop. The second round requires two single crochets in each stitch of the previous round, making 12 stitches. The third and fourth rounds continue with more stitches to expand the circle.
Next, we make the octopus's body by running four rounds of single crochet. Then, the decreasing begins to shape the body and stuff the form. At this point, add eyes to the octopus using black beads, a sewing needle, and black thread.
Now, we add the eight legs by crocheting into the previous row of loops using five half double crochet stitches into each stitch. Lastly, sew in the face, and the adorable Mini Crochet Octopus Amigurumi is complete! This project is a fun and quick way to delve into amigurumi if you're a beginner or even a seasoned crocheter looking for a quick project.
