Workshop - Crocheted Octopus. IntroductionI used a size 8 hook for the octopus made of the Lion Brand Lame’ in Multi 1 color.
The octopi do not require a specific gauge to make them like you do with some patterns. Each person crochets differently, so if you find a size 5 hook works better because you work tight or a size 11 hook because you work loose, or any of the other steel hooks sizes, absolutely use the hook that works best for you. For the New Metallics, I used a size 11 hook, however, it was difficult to grab both threads from the two cards and work them.
I picked Gold 1 for one card and Rose Quartz 12 for the other card to combine them. The octopus is worked with chs, sl sts and sc sts. If you want to include a loop at the top of the octopus to make it a pendant, begin the pattern with a 3” tail, ch30, join in the 10th chain from the hook, leaving 20 chains for making a loop to hang the octopus. For single crochet stitches, take the hook through the back half of the stitch. Supplies Finishing Touches. Tinyangelfish - surawhit. View Single Post - Little Fishie Scrubbies. Sting Ray.
