JELLYFISH ASSEMBLY

ATTACHING TENTACLES (working from the center of the belly):

1- Attach the 3 skinny light green tentacles evenly around the magic ring of the belly (photo 1).

2- Next, attach 5 of the thick dark green tentacles, placing them evenly around the 3 skinny ones (photo 2).

3- Place the remaining 5 thick light green tentacles evenly around the belly (about 2 rows from the edge of the belly, photo 3).

4- Attach the 5 remaining skinny dark green tentacles, positioning them in the middle of the thick light green tentacles (photo 4).

5- Make sure to securely knot the loose strands on the inside of the belly. Trim strands (photo 5).

TO FINISH THE JELLYFISH:

  1. To attach the belly to the body of the jellyfish, weave the yarn needle through the last row of stitches on the belly and the back loops from R15 on the body.
  2. Stuff with fiberfill before closing.
OPTIONAL:
If you would like to have a hanging jellyfish, simply make one more skinny tentacle. With a yarn needle, insert it into a stitch by the magic ring and bring out on the opposite side. Tie a knot on the tail ends and trim ends. Then gently pull chain through so that the knot is hidden inside the body .
