I love knit animal projects, and this knit octopus from Purl Soho is super cute and great to make for any ocean-loving kid (or adult!).
Stitch it up in any color you like, or even make it striped for extra fun. Maybe each leg could be a different color?
However you stitch it up, you’ll do a whole lot of increasing to shape the body, which looks almost like a hat, then each leg is worked separately, then grafted to the body with Kitchener Stitch. It sounds like a really fun technique.
