Introduction: DIY Octopus Plushie

Here is an adorable Octopus Plushie that is surprisingly easy to make!

I have seen similar octopus plushies around on the internet and I just had to try and make my own version.

This is my first Instructable so please let me know what you think and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy! =)

Step 1: What You Will Need

- My Templates (These have been uploaded here. My plushie is around 30cm high - to achieve this size, the template page must be A4-sized)

- Fleece: Lilac; Purple; Black; White

- Thread: Lilac; Purple; Black; White

- Stuffing

- Scissors

- Needle

Step 2: The Method

To see how it's made please watch the step-by-step video tutorial.

I really hope you enjoy making this adorable plushie.

Happy Crafting =)

Question 2 years ago

I don't understand your scale size. Printed the template onto a piece of A4 paper. My octopus is less than 20cm. How do you get to 30cm?

How do you print the template? I'm a little confused about what A4 size means?

Hi, A4 is the standard paper size. You can simply save the picture and print it on regular paper.

Hey I really love this and plan to make it for my friends birthday but I was wondering. How many yards of fabric did you need?
