Step 1
put sixteen of ur first color (this is were you will be attaching the tentacles later) and then tie it into a circle
Step 2
get your next color bead and put it one the string
Step 3
skip a bead the go through the one after the one bead you skipped
Step 4
repeat al the way around then come out the next different color bead
Step 5
repeat all the way around then go through the next TWO beads
Step 6
make this pattern with the stitch shown(ONLY ADD TWO BLACK BEADS, THESE ARE THE EYES)
Step 7
go till desired height
Step 8
add one bead the go through the next 3 beads
Step 9
do that till you make it back to the first bead you put on of that color and make sure you come out that first color
Step 10
add one bead then skip the other beads and go through that same color
Step 11
do that all the way around until your octopus head looks like this and pull really tight
Step 12
go through beads till you reach the bottom of the head (TENTACLE TIME)
Step 13
add as many beads as you want onto your string(I'm doing five)
Step 14
skip hoing through that last bead then go through all of the other beads with ur string
Step 15
make sure the tentacle is at the bottom of the octopus then pull the string tightly and go through the next TWO beads
Step 16
