*Myself for each hat (for the tam for sure) i took a hotglue gun and dabbed some glue in the middle of the hat then placed it onto my octo holdijg it till the glue sets*
But you could stitch it on if you don't have or dont want to glue it on!
Making the Octo with chunky yarn! (Used 5mm hook)
(Why is this part of the pattern because the first one i made was with chunky yarn hats will fit because it should be the same size)

Legs

2. *ch 10, 2 sc in each ch down* sc in sc at bottom, rep ** till you got 8 legs
Stitch it all together just like the one above. Eyes and hats should all fit this one as well (because as i said i made that one to be the same size as this one)
Other fun things you can do
-Make it a monicle
-Make it a mustache
- Make it another style hat (i plan to!)
