Cute needlewomen! Agree that the comfort of any room gives small additions, with taste inscribed in its interior. For example, skillfully exhibited eggs from a natural material or a small rug near the coffee table, knitted with elongated loops, fluffy in bright colors or in the classic black and white strip. Sofa pillows are also a kind of decoration of any room. We offer to associate the original octopus pillow with knitting needles.
Knitted octopus
We select yarn. Since the pillow must be soft, then the yarn is picking a nursery, not barbed, pleasant to the touch.
Yarn for octopus
To work, we will need circular spokes No. 3, double and spokes for socks of the same number.
1. We start knitting from the top of the octopus. The macushk consists of 6 wedges. So, they recruit 6 loops. They will be the left border of each wedge. Close loop in a circle and make adding in each odd row on the right side of the original loop. In total additives should be 18. On the spokes 114 loops.
2. Next, knit 25 rows without adding also a bustling.
3. Since the head has a shape of a ball, then we make the disbuting of the loops. In each odd row we reduce 6 loops (that is, as much as it was originally wedges). While there will be no 96 loops on the spokes.
4. We leave the head of the octopus alone and begin to encourage the tentacles each separately on three sash spokes, starting with three loops. The additions are made in the same way as when the octopus head is unscrupuling until there are 22 loops on the knitting needles. Next knit without adding 40cm. Octopus will be original if the tentacles to tie to another pattern, for example, "corn" (1 row - facial, irons, 2 rows - above the front-end, over the wrong front).
5. Now we attach the tentacle to the octopus body. For this, the tentacles of three spokes are translated into two. On each 11 loops. We attach 11 loops to 11 octopus body loops, and the other 11 loops are removed on an extra thread (see photo).

6. Similarly, we encourage the remaining 7 tentacles.
7. Between each tentacle, they inspire one loop. They are obtained 8.
8. We recruit them on ring spokes. Between the tentacles, add 2 more loops, that is, they are now 3. and in order in order: three loops between the tentacles, then 11 loops with an additional needle, again three loops, again 11 loops of another tentacle, etc., so far all loops are not Will be on the spokes (see photo).
9. Now fill the tentacles and the head of Vatin. And finish work.
How to knit octopus
10. We convey the bottom of the octopus by analogy of the head of the cap, that is, this number of loops divide on 6 parts - 6 wedges and we reduce in each odd row along the right edge, observing the pattern as on the tentacles ("corn"). The remaining 6 loops are tightened and fix the thread.
11. Embroide the octopus's eyes, as shown in the photo.
This is such an original pillow. Applying fantasy and creativity, it is possible to make an octopus not in monophonic, but, for example, with the tips of a touch of another color, or not sleeping, but with wide open eyes, like a child. And then your creative flight of thoughts.
