Last, but definitely not least, in my line up of birthday sea creatures is…
Mr. Octopus! If you’ve hung around the blog for any period of time, you’ll know that this little guy is my favourite of Hansi Singh’s patterns. In fact, I’ve made six others, and this seventh one won’t be my last.
It’s an absolutely brilliant little pattern… made even more so by the addition of pipe cleaners in the legs that allow you to curl those tentacles. Like the others, I just used leftover bits of leftover Stray Cat.
And that ends my spate of toy knitting for now…
It’s time for something new!
I love the octopus! I think it’s my favorite.

Love his curly little legs. You picked perfect colors — looks just like the little one I found in a shell in the Gulf of Mexico one time.
