Jeremy Jellyfish is your new cuddly, friendly buddy with amazingly tactile tentacles!
He loves exploring and can’t wait to hang out with you on all your adventures; with an optional removable Romanian cord by he is equally happy dangling from your ceiling or snuggling up on the sofa.
Made in mainly chunky yarn he works up quickly and makes an adorable pal for small (and not so small!) people!
Method:
Assembling Jeremy requires no sewing, his tentacles are threaded through his tummy and knotted on the reverse, then his head and tummy are crocheted together to form the ruffle, leaving only one end to sew in on the entire project!
Written in UK crochet terms, the pattern contains tips on working with chenille yarn and photos to aid in positioning of eyes, mouth, and tentacles.

Size:
Approx. 50cm x 20cm (20” x 8”) from top of head to bottom of longest tentacle when made with designated chunky yarn.
Use a different weight yarn if you wish to make a bigger or smaller jellyfish.
