A unique pattern inspired by a fascinating creature, Horatio the Nautilus is the perfect project for the adventurous knitter. His striped shell, elegant tentacles, and protective hood offer a fun knitting challenge that yields a very special creation. Horatio is worked in three parts – shell, tentacles, and hood. The shell is worked in garter stitch with wrap-and-turn short rows, the layers of tentacles are worked as i-cord from a flat base, and the hood is worked in stockinette stitch with twin-wrap (shadow wrap) short rows. Nautiluses are members of the cephalopod family. Horatio’s knitted cephalopod family includes Opus, Opal and Opie the Octopuses, Inkling the Squid, and Tako the Bobtail Squid also by Cate Carter-Evans. Please note that Horatio the Nautilus is intended for decorative purposes only. This item is not a toy, and the design does not meet any safety standards for toys.
