I have the head done and one tentacle. What is the best way to attach them? I am not good at sewing etc. I left a long tail before my chain and a long one when I fastened off thinking I could "tie" them on. But doubt that would hold up? So any tips? <br /><br />And thanks for sharing this adorable little creature!StampingJoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16016685275683259515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3613032506277945191.post-25581103674871828542017-10-09T13:03:11.327-05:002017-10-09T13:03:11.327-05:00Super cute!

My daughter insisted on buying a crocheted octopus at a craft show this weekend so i had to come home and show her i could have made her one for free! :) <br />I crocheted the legs during the last decrease round, because i hate attaching things. It was a little fussy but made sure they were spaced out evenly and i think they turned out cute.<br />I saw one post from a while back about the curls not turning out, i had the same issue and discovered if i crochet in just the top loop of the stitch they curl much better!<br />Thanks so much for this pattern!Heather McBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049568840452133910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3613032506277945191.post-90227492441000126032017-03-16T16:42:15.043-05:002017-03-16T16:42:15.043-05:00I just made this!

I've only been crocheting for about 2 months and actually learned the magic circle yesterday! I was just wondering if the circle (for the head) is supposed to ruffle? I don't know if I'm doing it correctly. I'm hoping the ruffle will die down as I keep going, but am a little worried. I'm currently on round 7.

Thanks for commenting on my dilemma ...Hi, Caroline! Thanks for commenting on my dilemma about crocheting for other people. I've only been crocheting for about 7 months, and it makes me swell with pride when people admire my projects. At first, I was crocheting little "gift" items for people, just because I could never put my hook down, and I enjoyed surprising people with my little handmade creations. Now, I still enjoy making things for people, but like you said, I REALLY enjoy giving things to my closest friends and family members . . . people who truly appreciate the love and care that went into the gift. I was recently asked by a co-worker, a lady I barely know, if I would make an OSU bed cover for her best friend. She said she would be happy to buy the yarn. Hmmmph! I didn't know how to respond (kindly), so I told her I would do it. I didn't blurt out a price because I was tongue-tied. Now, I've been trying to figure out how to handle these situations in the future. <br /><br />I love your ideas. I think next time this happens, I'll offer to teach the admirer how to crochet and offer my assistance, but I'll not volunteer for anymore huge projects. In the meantime, I'll have to look at a lot of orange and black and be regretting that I wasn't bold enough to speak up. <br /><br />Thanks again for your thoughts!Kerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01136128752256171518noreply@blogger.com
