My first attempt at amigurumi was using a pattern I found after hours of scouring in the internet for the easiest amigurumi pattern which is an octopus taken from the following link.
Being a beginner in crochet with no prior experience, and only learning it through books and online pictures and of coz videos, I am quite satisfied with the final piece.
For the following pattern I used the Size 7 crochet hook and purple acrylic yarn.
