A 50 pattern stuffed animal book that is collaborating all my older stuffed animal patterns from the past 4 years, and revamping those patterns to update them to better written formats. Don’t worry if you want, I will continue to have the original patterns available, but only in this book does the revamp of the pattern exist.
There are 17 completely new patterns in the book that have never been available before.
The wonderful part of this book is it has all the techniques if photo tutorial and written in one place, plus how to design your own animal series I did awhile back, and how to enlarge your animal patterns from past tutorials. It also has many suggestions on what gauge looms are good with what yarns are out there. What fillings you can consider and so much more. It is a complete book on stuffed animals. 200 pages worth of information.
I include at the end of the book a video index of all the older videos of the animals that had video with them originally, the revamps were not included in the video, but you have access to the link, so you can look at the videos as a guide.
I used the 24 peg 3/8” gauge CinDwood loom for the book and every pattern is written in 24 peg format, but I include the fact you can use any 24 peg loom to make any of these patterns. There are only 2 patterns not in 24 peg format, but giving you options on other ways you can take the pattern in the book, and make them larger easily.
Feel free to ask questions about the book and all, I am here to help.

The pattern was made for a friend of mine who called himself “The Sockinater” and decided to make him this fun pattern.
I used a 24 peg 3/8” gauge CinDwood Loom, but honestly any 24 peg loom will work as long as the corresponding yarn goes with the gauge.
Basically I used some scrap yarn but probably would have used a skein of anything really. So great project if you want to use up some scrap.
Would consider this kind of a challenging pattern as it a pattern done in 1 piece. So there are short rows, wraps and turns, color chunking, some sewing, and many other techniques.
I did not do a beginning to end video tutorial on this pattern, but include links to videos that will help with troublesome areas you might have. There is picture tutorials on stitches and techniques, and it is mostly written. I do include instructions on making it a simple octopus with just 2 colors, no hat and no beard.
Please feel free to contact me if you run into questions when making the pattern.
