Is That a Big Blue Cthulhu In Your Shop

Description

Or are you just happy to see me?

Little from column A, little from column B.

He is pretty big, but he’s been painstakingly hand tamed so he is guaranteed not to attack anyone unless they really, really deserve it. Probably… On second thought, guaranteed is probably too strong a word.

His ginormous eyeball is a strange but lovely shade of pinky mauve, which, funny story! Started out bright freakin' magenta, but the paint reacted weird with the plastic, and it started to fade almost immediately. It's now been this color for about 6 months now, so this is definitely the final hue.

His body is comprised of a novelty yarn that's 1 strand of bunchy nylon in shades of purple, royal blue and teal, then 1 stand of feathery teal - Then, I got all nutty and crocheted that together with a variegated chenille, also in shades of blue, teal and purple.

One of my failings as a photographer...and probably as a human being in general...is that I cannot photograph teal - it always comes out looking more aqua or turquoise, but this guy's main color is definitely teal.

He's about 5 inches / 12.75 cm tall and 6 inches / 15.25 cm wide (not including his jutting eyeball). Think pomelo size, you know, those big grapefruit thingies? With his tentacles he’s about 10 inches / 25.5 cm long.

As you can see from the perspective shot with his little key ring pal (not included in listing), he is quite magnificently proportioned, in fact, his eyeball is about the same size as his buddy’s whole body!

Big Cthulhu and I thank you for looking!
