Bonnie Cox –
I bought this pattern from the craft show in Birmingham.
I have finished making my octopus using rainbow colours for the underside tentacles and an off white for the head and upper tentacles.
I shall be making another very soon! but I believe there are possibly a couple of errors in the pattern.
Beaded tentacle. I believe row 8 should be after rows 9-20
Loopy tentacle. I believe row 66 should read ch1, 1dc, ch1, sk1, 2dc, turn
Great fun to make, thanks for the design.
Becky Cole –
Thank you so much for your kind words and for bringing the potential errors to our attention. We will definitely check this out x
