These Giant Crochet Octopuses Exist, And I Need One In My Life

Cuddling something big and soft releases positive emotions that make people more relaxed and happy. Fortunately, we found a new (and rare) cuddle buddy named Alfred, the giant octopus, from Sowoolcool on Etsy. It doesn't only have a unique design, but it also makes for an ideal decoration at home.

This cute and cuddly octopus is entirely handmade. Its makers crochet its intricate pattern using chunky yarn and stuff it with cotton and polyfill later on.

Together, these materials give Alfred, the giant octopus, the right balance of comfort and aesthetics without reducing its cuddle factor.

You'll find at least two sizes for this crocheted octopus. First, there's a medium-sized octopus that weighs at least three kilograms. There's also a larger one to meet your room's dimensions.

But if your area's space is a bit tight, don’t worry! They can make the giant crochet octopus, much smaller as well.

The giant crochet octopus is also a great addition to photoshoots. You can bring it wherever you go and capture it along with historic landmarks. You can even take pictures with it beside you, on your head, or wrap its tentacles around your body.

You can choose from natural tones like white, black, gray, brown, and beige to more playful palettes like pink and red. Because of this diversity, Alfred, the giant octopus, can match your living room or bedroom's theme and vibe.

Since this octopus' design is intricate, orders usually take a while, so you can probably expect a few weeks for it to be handmade and delivered.

Each handmade piece can take up to five weeks to complete. Of course, it can also exceed this timeframe depending on the availability of chunky yarn.
