Notes

Miles loves his octopus toys.

This was a lot smaller than I expected, which is fine. It made it a fast knit. I ended up wishing that I had done provisional bindoffs for the two edges that got grafted together.

I had to eliminate two rounds of knitting on the bottom to keep it from being too bulgy.

I left out the pipe cleaners, since this is for a toddler. Instead, I varied what order I did the short rows in, which made the tentacles curl differently.

Also knit for the cephalopodalong.
