The Octopus pattern has instructions for both a fingering weight and a worsted weight version. Both are worked the same, seamlessly, from the top-down. The legs are cleverly worked right into the bottom of the body so no extra finishing is needed. The fingering weight Octopus makes a great ornament!
Here is some pattern information for you:
Finished size: 1 ¾ (3 ½) – inches tall
Yarn:
Small Octopus: 10 grams of fingering weight yarn
Large Octopus: 30 grams of worsted weight yarn
The samples are made in Regia Arne & Carlos sock yarn color #3653 (small size), and Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Worsted 100% superwash wool in color #412 Campbell (large size).
Needles:
Small Octopus: US size 1 double-pointed needles, set of 5
Large Octopus: US size 5 double-pointed needles, set of 5
Use the size needles to achieve gauge.
Gauge:
Small Octopus: 8 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch
Large Octopus: 6 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch
Materials:
Yarn needle
Detachable stitch markers
Small amount of fiberfill
Ruler or tape measure
Waste yarn
2 - 9mm safety eyes
Pattern note: Both sizes are worked the same with the exception of a couple of places in the pattern so one stitch count is given throughout. In the places where the directions are different, the smaller size is listed first and the larger size is in the parentheses.

The four legs of the Turtle are knit first, then when the body is worked the legs are knit right in as you go! The turtle body, head and legs are worked seamlessly. The Shell is worked in the round from the center-out and attached with a quick running stitch at the end.

Yarn:
Turtle: 100 yards of worsted weight.

Raccoon is worked seamlessly from the bottom-up for the body and head (worked back to front), all appendages are picked up and knit on. The only whipstitch seam is to attach the head to the body. This is a fun and fairly simple knit that works up pretty fast due to the heavier yarn and larger needles!

Main color: 100 yards
Contrast colors 1 and 2: 50 yards each
