Crochet your own Amigurumi Octopus. This octopus is about 7" tall and is dying to wrap her tentacles around someone with love. This is using Lily Sugarn Cream yarn.
It's a pretty easy pattern to work step-by-step and check off the instructions as you do it.
Originally, Octavia had only 7 legs, but it was updated in 2021 to change the pattern slightly so she has 8 legs. She probably just grew and got an extra leg or something.

The stitch-along is in 3 parts. Head / Body as part 1. Underside is part 2. Finishing and assembling is part 3.
Octopuses are sometimes used in preemie situations where an octopus is put with the tubes and stuff that the baby may see.

As soon as I saw this pattern, I asked, "OMG, how sweet is she?" I want to crochet her up. I love the eyes and the shaping of the head.
Her best friend has been done in purple, and you can see that version on the pattern itself.

You didn't help anyone with their questions that I can see. I too am stuck at the 7 tentacle point.
