What size crochet jellyfish does this pattern make?
The actual jellyfish body is 2-1/2 inches tall with a diameter of about 3 inches. With the tentacles the jellyfish is almost 9 inches tall, or 11 inches including the hanger. But you can easily make a larger jellyfish crochet toy by using blanket yarn and a larger hook size.
What can I stuff my crochet jellyfish with?
We used poly-fil (fiber fill) stuffing to stuff the body of our jellyfish, but you can also use stuffing from an old pillow or stuffed animal. Or, if you don’t have stuffing, this is a great way to use up scrap bits of yarn or fabric. Pro tip: keep a desktop garbage can handy while you crochet or sew and throw all your ends and scraps into it. Eventually you’ll have enough small pieces to use as stuffing!
How long are the tentacles for this crochet jellyfish?
The longest tentacles, made with a 45 chain foundation, are about 6-1/2 inches long. The shortest, made with 25 chains, are just over 4 inches long. You can easily make longer or shorter tentacles by increasing or decreasing the number of chains at the beginning.
