Notes

Added tentacle closures a) for lack of chokable buttons and b) to accommodate a growing baby.

Next time I do one of these I will knit it entirely from the top down: CO 63 st with provisional CO, knit the hood, CO 7 st on either side for the placket, knit the body, pick up the hood st and 3NBO for the seam across the top. Also, the placket isn’t really needed for the tentacles, though it looks nice.
