Little Friend!

I made myself a cute little octopus plush to match the one I made for my cousin for her birthday! Somehow despite using the same hook her’s is much bigger :face_in_clouds:, and mine looks so angry :sweat_smile::sweat_smile:. But I love them anyways! Have you all ever had a pattern turn out two stuffies that look different despite doing everything the same?

Yeah lol I think it’s my tension that made the difference :laughing: it’s so cute I love the colors!

Love it! And the yarn color choice reminds me of strawberry icecream . Yes its happened to me too before. Its all in the tension! The tighter the stitch, the smaller the project will be. If you have a lot of slack in the stitches, the bigger the project will be. Hope that makes sense!

I used the Super Chunky Octopus (no sew) pattern from amysteriouscat (I used the long leg option) :smiling_face:

Totally I’m so heavy handed I have to constantly remind myself to loosen up a little bit. It looks adorable though I love the little angry face​:grin:

Yeah, its tension or different hook size. Or it just looks different
