Description
Meet Ophelia. She has eight arms and still somehow gets less done in a day than you do.
The Ophelia the Octopus crochet pattern is a cute, squishy amigurumi project featuring a round little head and eight wonderfully curly tentacles.
She’s worked seamlessly in the round, with the tentacles crocheted as part of the project, because making eight tiny octopus legs and then discovering you have to sew them all on individually would be an act of cruelty.
Ophelia is beginner-friendly and uses straightforward crochet techniques, making her a fun introduction to amigurumi or a satisfyingly quick project when you’re already firmly in your tiny-crochet-creature era.
Make her in classic ocean colours.
Make her pink.
Make her neon green.
Make an entire army of tiny octopuses and refuse to explain yourself.
Ophelia does not judge.

Why You’ll Love Making Ophelia
She’s cute enough to gift, small enough to make without entering into a long-term relationship with the project, and curly enough to be extremely satisfying when those tentacles start taking shape.
She also has eight arms, which technically makes every hug four times better.
That is definitely how math works.
Make her for a kid. Make her for a friend. Make her for your desk.
Or make her because sometimes you need to abandon your sensible project queue and crochet an octopus.
Valid.
