A Quick Post about an Octopus
Isn't he cute? I made him for my cousin's baby. Shanna is having her first baby, a little boy, and my mom and sister made him a rag blanket with a flannel print with sea creatures on it. I jumped in and thought I'd crochet him an octopus to go with it. I think it turned out so cute. My boys love it. I found a pattern on the Red Lion site, but decided not to follow it exactly, so I could make him the size I felt like making him. And yes, he does have 8 tentacles.

About Me
- Kara @ Craftastical!
- My name is Kara. My husband, David, and I have four children, and I mostly stay at home with them. My life is a mushed up mass of breaking up sibling spats, grocery shopping, cleaning pee off bathroom floors, crafting and home decor projects. I adore crafting with the heat of a thousand glue guns, and I've got the supplies to prove it.
