Magnum Opus
A knitter recently sent me a picture of her version of Opus the Octopus, and I think he's amazing!
Please meet Magnum Opus by Rosy, a keen knitter and knitadermist based in Braemar, Scotland and coordinator of the Deeside Knitwits.
Rosy knitter her tentacles lengthwise, and added a picot edging for the suckers. You could get a similar effect with bobbles.
