Thing 51

Today I went back to my favourite crochet blog of the moment, this time for a creature of the deep: mini baby octopus.

I used the blue acrylic of Elsa’s dress and a 3.5mm hook and he was done in under an hour.  I finally opened a package of safety eyes I bought awhile ago. I like the glassy look it gives him.

His name is Inky, which is appropriate because a) he’s an octopus and b) he looks like the blue ghost from Pac-man.

Esther made a bed of shredded yarn for Inky and crocheted a little hat for him.

Cost of this Thing: €7.13 (2 packs of safety eyes, 30 pairs)
Cost of all Things to date: €78.96

Okay, now I’m really done with spending for a bit!
