It's All In The Tentacles... A Squid Hat How To

Teddy loves him some cephalopods. He's a grinning-squealing-hand-waving fool for cuttlefish, octopus or squid. While I'm more of a puppies and pandas type I'm prepared to indulge the fascination, by playing clips of Blue Planet on YouTube.

He's a squid hat (of course!) and you can find  detailed instructions to make him in pookie (or average cat) size, over at Poor Mojo. You'll need

  • some knitting skill, (I'll be trying to hack a crochet version)
  • Blue and White yarn,
  • Eyeball buttons,
  • and a certain amount of panache to carry it off.

The post also has a hilarious photo sequence of this self same cephalopod chowing down on an unsuspecting feline... totally made my day

If you simply must have your own squid hat there are grown up sized instructions here
