This is based on a pattern by Martha Johnson however I changed my octopus and fish a bit. The hat by itself is lovely, with a wavy pattern made to look like the sea. Next time I would have switched to grey to do the top section so that it looked like the octopus was sat on a rock.
The you knit the octopus and sew him on top
I loved the effect this pink variegated yarn gave to the octopus and I gave him a smile.
Finally I embroidered the fish in orange onto the hat to prevent adding bulk. I love how this turned out and I'm excited to send it to Australia to the baby's parents.
so cute!!! love it!
