The goal of the non-profit organization ProyectoSub is to promote scientific knowledge about marine organisms and ecosystems. Activities include scientific research, outreach programs, citizen science and education. In @crochetpatagonia, we contribute to these goals by designing realistic crochet patterns of species from the Patagonian rocky reefs as a tool for science outreach. In book 1 of the series, you will find patterns for three species of sea anemones and one species of jellyfish. Learn more about them while crocheting these amazing organisms!

Emil, the Preemie Crochet Octopus
Meet Emil, the cute preemie octopus crochet pattern. Do you crochet for charity? Have you heard about preemie octopus before? They're cute little amigurumi octopus (or jellyfish) suffed toys. Yes, they are adorable but that's not all. Scientific research has shown they actually help preemies get better. “The purpose of the crocheted octopuses is to promote comfort and development for the pre-term babies while in the hospital. The tentacles of the soft octos mimic the feel of the umbilical cord in their tiny hands and have been found to soothe the babies and help prevent them from pulling on wires and tubes.” Octopus for a Preemie-US Project Ambassador Randi Palm of Lonsdale Emil is an easy, beginner-friendly plush crochet octopus pattern. Only single crochet stitches are used throughout the pattern. Guidelines on size and construction were followed to be sure you can donate your crochet octopus to charity.
