This is a great pattern, but there are a couple typos and errors. I got it for such a cheap price, and it is turning out wonderful so far! Other than the couple mistakes in the pattern, it is a pattern I would recommend!

This pattern was super simple and easy to edit if you were doing things differently (colors, embroidered eyes, etc). I made a white and blue version for a friend’s nursery and I am so excited to gift it to her!

6/10 stars. The tentacles were fun, the head was not hard, there were typos in the pattern but with clarification from the creator I was able to finish the pattern. im not too impressed with it. probably best to buy from the original creator of anchor the octopus, to be honest. I didnt realize this was not the original until after I was already making it. oh well, my mistake. the creator of this one was friendly and tried to help.
