Knit Octopus

Initially i wasn't Sure how to make this Brief fit my skill set but then i remembered the little octopus i was attempting to knit and decided to create a 3D modeled version using a substance designer Texture.

Below are my references

Quick Knit Texture made in substance

Below we have my initial version but i felt like it was missing a little something. 

So i gave the little Guy a small stitch mouth along with adding a stitch to each of the buttons.
