White Squid
This is what my daughter did during the pandemic time off-school.
You need a crotchet and some white yarn.
Then, you just need some imagination.
This time, it was an idea of making a squid.
She didn't calculate anything, just was crotcheting until she finished it.
Body
Make a round beginning with a crotchet and continue making the body of a squid.
Single crotchets are recommended.
MR- magic ring
X - single crochet
Y - single crochet increase
A - single crochet decrease

Adding Legs, Frill and Eyes
Then, add more single crotchets to make a frill.
Stuff it with some sotton wool and close under the frill. Add some legs.
Add 2 beads as eyes.
And it's ready.
