That is so sad! You deserve happiness and fine things. Cast on a new project, the most squishy yarn, fun notions and instruction books, some new skills and fiber friends with a class... Plus, this habit is much better for your teeth than crack.

Get ready for big fun with tiny tentacles! In this kid-friendly crochet class, young makers will learn how to create their very own adorably squishy baby octopus — the perfect pocket-sized buddy, desk companion, or handmade gift.

Designed especially for kids, this class introduces beginner crochet skills in a relaxed, encouraging environment where creativity comes first and perfection is definitely optional. Students will learn how to crochet in the round, shape soft stuffing-friendly fabric, and bring their octopus to life with curly tentacles and loads of personality.

No two octopi will be alike — expect bright colors, silly names, and possibly an entire underwater family by the end of class!
