Customer Reviews
Pattern is well written & easy to follow. I've only made tentacles so far, but already looks great! Really good communication from seller, quick responses & polite/kind. A free pattern was offered as a thankyou for ordering, which is a really kind offer & much appreciated. Thankyou very much all round, would highly recommend this seller.
Honestly a super easy to follow pattern, and I'm new to amigurami. The Bobble stitch wasn't familiar (I make flat things usually) and the written instructions made it simple.
Great Pattern. Thank you very much!
I cannot wait to finish this awesome looking octopus! The pattern was beautifully written, easy to follow. I'm crocheting this for my grandson. Thank you for an awesome customer service! I'll be back for more patterns.
I haven't started yet, still waiting for the yarn! Pattern is well written with step by step instructions, a tad fiddly in spots, but I'll work it out.:)
Looking forward to starting this project
The seller is very kind! The pattern is great! I'm almost done with my octopus! I'm a beginner and have little to no idea what I'm doing, but I think it looks pretty good for being the third thing that I've crocheted!
I haven’t started yet but I can’t wait to start. Right now I’m working on the giant manta ray
I haven’t had a chance to make this but I love the pattern. The seller was very kind and responded quickly.
Excellent communication. Willing to work with you. The pattern is well written and I am excited to make this !
The pattern was very easy to follow. I would purchase from her again. The octopus turned out great!
So far I am really enjoying making this octopus! The pattern is easy to follow and it's fun!
I absolutely love the crochet pattern and how my finished piece turned out! The seller was incredibly kind, helpful, and absolutely lovely throughout the whole process.
Bought for a friend of mine
only just started making it, but very clear instructions so far.
I cannot wait to get him started! He is AWESOME!
Great pattern! I love how my giant anchor octopus came out. ❤️
The Pattern was not written correctly and in all fairness the selelr did try and help, the instructions to make the eyes needs a lot of work. I have subsequently repurchased the pattern else where.
Warning: the pattern had a note admitting part of the instructions was missing and had been filled in with guesswork, worded in a way that strongly suggested AI was used, possibly on an already-incomplete design that wasn't the seller's own. I asked the seller about this; they resent the PDF with that note removed but never addressed my concerns regarding stolen pattern and AI usage. They'd also messaged me right after purchase offering a free pattern for a positive review, which added to the fact that it felt shady. As for the pattern itself: working through the stitch counts, the body as written does not come out the same shape as in the photos. Also the product photos don't match each other, and at least one is clearly AI-generated (typical AI inconsistencies in pattern etc). (At least no problems to get refund)
Can’t get the download . But you have the money
Haven’t made the Octopus yet but can’t wait to start it. Have looked at the pattern and is very easy to follow. The owner was very helpful and even offered a free gift.
This pattern is very well written, easy to follow, and even instructions on how to do the type of stitches needed. She is on point with this, it’s hard to find patterns so well done.
This is an Easy pattern to follow. Very well written. Thank you
This is a beautiful pattern. I’m part way through making the Octopus and I can already tell that it will be stunning when it’s finished. The pattern is aimed at intermediate crocheters and as a relative novice there were a few stitches I hadn’t come across before but the pattern explained them brilliantly. I did the bubble stitch as explained on the pattern and then double checked it using a YouTube video and it was spot on. Can’t wait to finish this and I know the students at my school will love it.
