Attaching the tentacles
We’re going to be tying the ends of our tentacles to row 19. Push your hook under a stitch from the inside going out and pull one tail through. Push your hook through the next st and pull the other tail through. Now tie 3 knots to secure the tentacle.
The tentacle should sit on the outside of the body while the tails are on the inside. Hide the tails inside the head, skip 1-2 stiches and repeat until all the tentacles are attached.
-
Head (continued)
Continue to stuff the head as you close it up.
20. (sc, dec) x 6 (12)
21. 6 dec (6)
Fasten off and close the hole.
-
If you’d like to make jellyfish that are larger or smaller, make sure your stitch count after your last row of increasing is divisible by 4 so that the shell stitches on the bottom of the head are evenly spaced.
