Love it!
A happy little soul / sole - or should I say Octopussy

Never thought an octopus could be pretty until, I saw this one.
Witzend you are so talented.👌

It’s the designer of the pattern who’s talented! How anyone works these things out is always a wonder to me. Of course you can’t see it, but the flat base of the head and body divides precisely into 8 sections, so it’s easy to see exactly where to attach the tentacles.

Thank you all for kind words!

A very colourful, happy octopus with his tiny crab friend!
Congratulations, Witzend, on another lovely knitted character.

Oh, he's just gorgeous & he looks like he's about to burst into song!

He is fabulous. How clever you are.

He’s a cheerful looking chappie.

…with his little Crablet friend.
I managed to find all those colours in my stash - 16 different ones for the tentacles - one or two are similar, though.
He’ll be off with the postman on Saturday.
