When I was a child and made knitted toys and didnt have shop bought polyfill I used to use my mums old laddered tights cut into little pieces. It gave a really soft texture and was free!

@pebbleHathayBunano

yes, that is a good way to go. free is always good1

What did you put inside the head of the octopus to keep the round shape from flopping around? Thanks! :):)

@RykaStar

I used poly fill, but you could also use scraps of yarn or fabric.

I would like to do something like that if you'd post a video on how you made that

@c00kie02monster

They're not boring and they get right to the point. No blah blah blah blah in between the info I came to watch.

Cute octopus!
