Knit Laura Telfer-Williams' easy octopus toy for a premature baby.
At LKT HQ, we’re passionate about knitting for charity, especially when it comes to creating safe knitted toys for premature babies in hospital maternity wards. This adorable knitted octopus pattern is specially designed with NICU safety in mind. Its soft, coiled tentacles mimic the feel of an umbilical cord, giving premature babies something soothing to grasp—just like in the womb. This comforting design helps calm tiny hands and can reduce the risk of babies pulling on medical tubes and wires around them in the neonatal unit.
