Purple Tentacle Plushie

I’m really into making felt plushies at the moment. I’ve been surprised at how easy they are… well, compared with what I expected. This week I decided to take the plunge and try a Purple Tentacle from LucasArts’ Day of the Tentacle, and boy – am I pleased with how he turned out!

And since I’m nice, I whipped up a pattern so that other people can recreate the little guy – check out the link below. Printed on A4 this will give you a tentacle that stands about 18 cm (7 inches) tall, but there’s nothing to stop you scaling this dude up!

Just don’t leave your 6-foot version unattended otherwise he might just try to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!

Amy submitted these great Day of the Tentacle Amigurumi and I just love them. She made them for her boyfriend, who ranks Day of the Tentacle among his favorite video games, and provided the pattern for free on her blog.  If you’re not sure what Day of the Tentacle is, check out the blog entry where Amy explains the great 90’s video game by LucasArts.
