MAKE AN OCTOPUS

Did you know the tentacles on a crochet octopus or jellyfish mimic the umbilical cord? They can comfort a newborn in an incubator and help stop their hands pulling out medical equipment. UK charity Octopus for a Preemie is looking for crocheters to make some and is being supported by HiyaHiya, Three Bears Yarn and Wool Warehouse.
