Cute Crochet Jellyfish Amigurumi Pattern

     I decided to take a break from crocheting cold weather accessories today and made this adorable crochet jellyfish. I cannot wait to show it to my son(currently visiting his father for the weekend), he is going to love it! :)

  

I used a 4.25 mm hook for the "head " and a 3.75 mm hook for the tentacles. The yarn is Red Heart soft in sea foam.

You will need stitch markers or yarn of a different color to mark rows/rounds(I normally just use the starting tail from the magic ring)

Magic ring(6 St)

2 single crochet(Increase) into each st(12 st)

2 single crochet(Increase) into each st(24 st)

Single crochet in the next 3 st, 2 single crochet in the next(Inc), single crochet in the next 3 st, inc in the next, continue this for the row

Single crochet in the next 4 st, 2 single crochet in the next, single crochet in the next 4 st, inc in the next, continue for the row

single crochet for 8 rows

Single crochet in back loops(*front loops are for later*)There should be 36 stitches

 

Add in safety eyes, and sew V for mouth(if desired)

Single crochet 2 stitches together for the row(Row of decreases)

Start stuffing

Single crochet 2 stitches together for the row

Make sure that the “head” part of the jellyfish is stuffed to your liking, then make 3 more decreases, slip st into the next stitch, sew shut.

Now to use those front posts, with a 3.75mm hook join yarn into first front post and single crochet 2 stitches into the same st as join, single crochet 3 stitches into every other stitch for the row. Slip stitch into first single crochet of row, sew in ends.

Now it's time for the tentacles :)

Now you've got a cute jellyfish of your very own! I hope this pattern was helpful.
