Next, we begin to knit the tentacles:
Rnd 19. 6 sc; (we don’t crochet a row, we do ll ; turn) (6)
Rnd 20-23. 6sc; ll; turn (6)
Rnd 24. dec; 2sc; dec; ll; turn (4)
Rnd 25. 2dec (2)
Fasten the thread, cut. thread ends while you can not remove, hide them when stitching parts inside the product.
We retreat from the first tentacle 1 column, fasten the thread to the next column (in the 8th column of the row) and repeat 19-25 rows.
Thus, we crochet to the end of the row, in total we get 6 tentacles.
We do not cut the thread of the latter, but we will begin to tie the entire product along circle: we make ll and we crochet the usual sc along the tentacles, and sl-st in column between them.
Those. for each of the tentacles we crochet:
6 sc on the side (1 sc at the beginning of each row); 2 sc for 25- th row; 6 sc on the second side; and 1 sl-st in a loop between tentacles; At the end, we make slst into the lifting loop, fasten and cut a thread.
We crochet exactly the same part from the yarn of another colors.
If you are using eyelets on a safe fastening, then insert them into each part with the front side, in the 10-11th row, between the points input – 4 columns.
We lay a little filler in one part (you can not lay at all).
We insert the second part into it, purl sides to each other. We sew the details with a strong, thin thread among themselves along the edge of the tentacles.
Also, we sew the parts together, approximately, along the 17th row, so that when turning the toy filler did not shift into the tentacles.
Glue the eyes and embroider a mouth on each side.
