Octopus

I was gonna make a peashooter, but I sorta messed up, so I made the octopus instead..

So I tried using the pattern from http://blog.163.com/mifor@126/blog/static/1660352201142954727409/ but it didn't work for me, orz this one uses the string tht goes around for the holding cord, unlike the cherries, which uses the string for working cord. The cherries were more malleable. This one was like impossible to alter the shape after I've made it.. I think you'd have to adjust ur tension as u make this for the pattern to work. So uhh I acually altered the pattern a little bit..
