Ombre octopus and dishcloth

I feel I have gone through a bit of a crochet drought recently, then (like buses) two new projects come along at once..

They are both made with a single ball of Ricorumi Spin Spin dk in blue (010). The dishcloth has a starting chain of 33 and is made using a half treble cluster stitch that I found on The Crochet Swirl blog. Mine is made on a 4.5 mm hook, weighs 32g and measures 20cm square.

The remaining 18g of yarn was just enough to make an octopus using a 4mm hook. (The original pattern is here if you are interested, though I have modified mine a bit!)

I do have a recipient in mind for these, but Shhhhh… It’s a secret!
