Vampire squids are deep-sea creatures named for their blood-red bodies and slightly creepy shapes! The final product will be close to life-sized.

This pattern is available on my Etsy shop: YarnYonder

Supplies:
Red yarn, 4/medium weight. Example uses I Love This Yarn acrylic, color “Cranberry.” Approximately two 355yd skeins.
Orange yarn, 4/medium weight. Example uses I Love This Yarn acrylic, color “Desert Glaze.” Approximately two 355yd skeins. This can be a variety of colors since the squid’s webbing is semitransparent, but I would recommend tan, orange, or pink for realistic colors.
3.5mm or 4mm hook. Example used 4mm, but use your discretion based on your tension.
Darning needle
Two large safety eyes or buttons, preferably light blue. Example uses 22mm buttons.
Stuffing
Stitch markers (preferably 16+)
