Crochet Octopus Rattle Toy

Hi Readers and Crocheters!!

Yes, I know it has been a while since I posted.  I did take a short crochet break after my last Sweet Dolls post.  Sometimes we all have to take a break to recharge.  Happy 2025!!

But I am back and have so many new things lined up for this year!!  I will be doing some more free patterns here on my blog soon, but in the meantime check out how adorable these guys are.

Here is my first new written pattern for this year.  This 7-page PDF is available in my ETSY SHOP and my RAVELRY STORE.

Many years ago, I freehanded some of these cuties, but never wrote a pattern and now that my scrap yarn baskets are overflowing, I decided to do some stash busting starting with these cuties.

These work up to be about 11″ and I have added crinkle paper and rattle boxes to the insides.

Don’t you want to make them in all the colors?!?

Now, this is not a free pattern, but I do have a FREE OCTOPUS PATTERN RIGHT HERE ON MY BLOG.

And I have a whole A-Z Crochet Toys with Me Series that is also free and a great stash buster!!

Happy Crocheting and Happy New Year!!

XOXO, Kristi
