Making Your Crochet Squidward Tentacles Amigurumi

Materials:

• Worsted weight yarn in brown, light brown, black, and white
• Crochet hook (size appropriate for your yarn weight)
• Fiberfill for stuffing
• Tapestry needle
• Scissors
• Safety eyes (optional)

Step by step Pattern

Head:

1. With brown yarn, make a magic ring.
2. Chain 1 and crochet single crochets (sc) around the ring, increasing as needed to create a flat circle.
3. Continue crocheting sc in rounds, shaping the head as needed based on the image you referenced.
4. You may need to add or decrease stitches in certain areas to create the specific features of Squidward's head, such as his nose and mouth.

Tentacles (make 6):

1. With light brown yarn, chain a long chain (length will vary depending on desired tentacle length).
2. Single crochet back down the chain, creating a long, thin tube.
3. You may want to crochet a few extra stitches at the base of the tentacle to create a wider attachment point to the head.

Eyes (make 2):

1. With white yarn, make a magic ring.
2. Chain 1 and crochet sc around the ring, increasing as needed to create a small circle.
3. Switch to black yarn and crochet a few rounds around the white circle to create the pupil.
4. You can also use safety eyes instead of crocheting them yourself.

Assembly:

1. Sew the tentacles to the head, positioning them evenly around the body.
2. Sew on the eyes.
3. Stuff the head with fiberfill.
4. Sew up any open ends.

Finishing:

• You can embroider details on the face, such as eyebrows and a mouth, based on the image you referenced.
• You can also add additional details, such as a hat or shirt, to personalize your Squidward amigurumi.

Tips:

• Use a stitch marker to keep track of the beginning of each round.
• Change yarn colors by weaving in the ends securely.
• Stuff the head firmly but evenly to maintain its shape.
• You can adjust the size of the amigurumi by using different yarn weights and hook sizes.
• Get creative and personalize your Squidward amigurumi with different colors, textures, and embellishments!
