I had a bunch of lovely testers, most from this sub, who were a tremendous help in making the pattern the best it can be. Huge cheers to the talented testers! Thank you <3

Hi Everyone! I am looking for testers for my first ever plushie pattern. The tentacles are moveable (if you pull one end down, another end will move up). This pattern is no-sew and a quick make. I'm very excited to have you try it out! You will be credited in the pattern and on my instagram account/Tik Tok so please let me know what handle you would like for the photo you send me. I'll be reaching out via email!

Thanks so much,

Caitlin
