Cuddly Cthulhu Amigurumi

So cute!  So evil!  So confusing!

A crocheted great old one to keep your teddy bears, um, company.  Crochets up quick using odd balls of yarn you've got laying around.   A fun, easy present for all ages.

I wrote this pattern.  Feel free to make as many Cthulhu amigurumi as you like; give them to friends, family, disaster victims, etc.  However, the license is "non-commercial" so please, please, please don't start selling my design on etsy or at conventions.

Step 1 Stuff you need

Random yarn.  I used some acrylic worsted weight I bought at a yard sale ages ago, but you could use just about anything of roughly that gauge.  I used a medium green and a dark celery sort of color.

A size 00  and 0 steel hook for a nice, tight gauge.

fiber fill

A small dowel or paintbrush handle (to use as a helping hand for the tentacles)

a yarn needle for sewing on apendages

plastic safety eyes

acrylic paint (dark red, bright red, black, white)

tiny paint brush

clear non-yellowing nail polish ("top coat")

Helpful crochet supplies: row markers, kacha-kacha row counter, measuring tape.
