Ika & Tako - Squid & Octopus
Introducing the delightful duo of the squid and octopus, Ika & Tako (?? & ??), a charming knitting project that draws inspiration from our beloved furkids, Rumi & Bolt. This playful depiction is a tribute to their welcome-to-your-furever-home gift: Frankenstein Tako—a kick toy ingeniously crafted from an assortment of UFOs brought together in a whimsical design.
These cleaned-up versions of Ika & Tako not only serve as excellent stash busters, but they also promise to be a fun and engaging knitting experience. Our furkids can certainly attest to their enjoyment, as they were already swatting away at the pieces while I was assembling them! With their playful nature and curious demeanor, Rumi & Bolt were rolling their eyes and adding to the delightful chaos!
P.S.: Babies, children, and even adults will surely fall in love with Ika & Tako as much as our furry friends do! This project is designed to bring joy to knitters of all ages.
This project is an ideal choice for beginners keen on advancing their knitting skills. It features basic shaping techniques, simple knitting patterns, and is accompanied by pictorial guides that make assembling Ika & Tako a breeze.
DISCLAIMER: The suggested yarn is carefully chosen to closely match the yarn used in this project. To ensure your finished product meets your expectations, it is always advisable to knit a gauge swatch before you dive into your Ika & Tako adventure.
