Let’s crochet tentacles of free amigurumi pattern
Tentacles
Ch5, Slst from the second chain of the hook x4.
Sew blach beads as the eyes, on to the top of the tentacles or use a black embroidery yarn.
Assembly
Go back to all the FLO of round 4, 11 and 19. Insert a new yarn in the same color then slst each sc across the round. When you’re done, take another new yarn and insert from anywhere near the slst (only in round 4 and 11) wrap it under the slst around, pull tight and fasten off, this method is to firm up the shape of the shell.
Place the shell on the part of the body, sew slightly backward toward the tail. See pictures underneath as your guidance. Sew the tentacles into the head in between round 2 and 3. I decorated the snail’s shell using beads and french knot with embroidery thread. Feel free to decorate your snail using anything you desire.
Congratulations, you have completed the amigurumi snail pattern.
