What squid species are usually around 3-4ft in length?

Hello!

I've been trying to do research on this for a little bit now. Most of what I'm finding (local library, online and database searches, etc) is telling me there are 300 species of squid in the order but not what the species are. Even going through wikipedia connections there's hardly the info I'm looking for.

I just keep getting results for humbolt, giant, colossal, and pygmy squid....

I only ask because my husband is obsessed with squid and he wants me to make a squid body pillow. Recently I chrocheted him a storage bag based off the strawberry squid (larger than life size) and I want to make him this body pillow based off a real squid but like accurate in size.

I know there's A LOT that's still being researched on squid but if there's anything other than just humbolt squid I would love to know

Thank you!
