The Mystical Jellyfish

Explore the world of amigurumi and crochet your very own mythical jellyfish. This sweet little guy works up quick, and is a perfect piece to add those special hand dyed or art yarn scraps you can't part with.

Drop Hook size for smaller weights) Different kinds of Ribbons and Textured yarn in 29” lengths G7 4.5mm or F5 3.75mm (this size can change based on yarn you use, keep in mind you want tight stitches with little to no holes when working Amigurumi) Poly-Fil 12mm safety eyes (this may also very with yarn size since you will create a smaller doll) Scissors Blunt Yarn Sewing Needle Stitch Marker Malabrigo Mecha I love colors #MC870, and #MC005 Urth Galatea Bulky Cotton I love colors #2094 #2205 Bernat Blanket in misty green (used in pictured examples) Or Any Weight 5-6 or Worsted (using worsted will create a smaller Jelly) Yarn Suggestions For Tentacles: Think texture, you want a lot if different kinds Berroco Dulce I love colors #2009-Opal or #2011-Silver Fibers of Life Recycled Sari Silk Queensland Coastal Cotton Worsted I love colors #3005 or #3003 In my example I used Recycled Sari Silk Ribbons held with a bumpy type yarn from my stash , Lion Brand Feels Like Bliss in Blush for the crochet chain tentacles, and Magic Moon Fibers by Forest Folk Fibers in Strawberry Moon for the small spiral tentacles (in pictured examples) For this little guy you will be creating multiple parts and then sewing them together to create your Jelly. Some of the tentacles are just ribbons and textured yarn. Also in my example I held some sparkly handspun together with the main color to give it a bit more texture. This can be done with any sparkle yarn preferably in a dk to fingering weight.
