I made this jellyfish amigurumi pattern years ago and did a few revisions after that. In this pattern the upper and lower part don’t need to be sewn.
Before wrote down the pattern I made some research about jellyfish anatomy. I got the information that the part which hanging down from the center are oral arms, I wrote as arms in this pattern. And surrounding the arms are tentacles, at the margin of the bell or body.
I hope you enjoy making this little jellyfish. Please let me know if you have some difficulties while crocheting it. Don’t forget to link back to this blog or my social media (facebook and instagram) if you upload your craft.
