Top part
Crochet with the main color
1.6sc in MR
2.6 inc (2sc in 1sc) = 12sc
3.(1sc, inc)*6 = 18sc
4.(2sc, inc)*6 = 24sc
5.(3sc, inc)*6 = 30sc
6.(4sc, inc)*6 = 36sc
7.(5sc, inc)*6 = 42sc
8.(6sc, inc)*6 = 48sc
9-14. (6 rounds) = 48sc
fasten the thread, hide the end.
Bottom part
crochet with the main color
1.6sc in MR
2.6 inc (2sc in 1sc) = 12sc
3.(1sc, inc)*6 = 18sc
4.(2sc, inc)*6 = 24sc
5.(3sc, inc)*6 = 30sc
6.(4sc, inc)*6 = 36sc
7.(5sc, inc)*6 = 42sc
8.(6sc, inc)*6 = 48sc
We do not break the thread, because then we will connect the two parts.
Tentacles
We crochet in total 7 pcs.
*From plush yarn we knit crochet 4 pieces
Select f chain from 20 air loops. In the second loop from the hook crochet 3SC
(single crochet). So crochet to the last loop (crochet 3SC in each loop). In the last
loop make a sl st – slip stitch.
*From thinner yarn 1 piece use a hook that fits the size
Select f chain from 45 air loops. In the second loop from the hook crochet 3SC
(single crochet). So crochet to the last loop (crochet 3SC in each loop). In the last
loop make a sl st – slip stitch.

Assembly and finishing touches
*Fix the eyes between 9-10 row at a distance of 3-4 SC
*Attach the tentacles to the bottom (in the order you like), tie 2-3 knots on the
seamy side
*Now we connect the top and bottom. We did not cut the thread on the lower part,
and we will connect it to it. We grab the loops on both parts and crochet for 3SC
*We make out the face (mouth, nose, eyelashes) with black thread.
