Knit your very own colourful octopus, including the large red version as seen on Tom Daley on Channel 4’s Game of Wool. This design has become one of the most recognisable creatures from my Under the Sea collection, and now you can make a giant showstopper or a mini version.
Both octopuses are knitted flat on straight needles, using shaping, increases, decreases and big bobbles to create its textured tentacles. Each kit includes all the yarn, stuffing and eyes you need, with different size and colour options available in the dropdown menus.
To knit your octopus you’ll need the Under the Sea pattern book. You can add this to your kit if you don’t already have it. The book includes the full octopus pattern plus nine other ocean-inspired designs.
