    This is a cute pattern. Using a solid yarn that’s not fluffy would be ideal for a video and I had a hard time following the underside of the arms. I wasn’t sure if you meant to alternate the term stitch and chain as the same meaning but it was too fast for me to follow and understand

    I am so glad you like it! The hook you’ll want to use will depend on your tension, let me explain…If you naturally have a little bit of tighter tension I would probably use a 8 mm hook, however if you have a little bit more loose tension like I tend to have I would use a 6mm hook so there are no holes when you stuff the octopus. Let me know if you have any other questions!🧶❤
