An Original Cthulhu Toque, and Now Selling

As if I didn’t have a crafty enough weekend, I started working on a new design: a crochet Cthulhu toque!

I’m suddenly obsessed with this cute tentacled creature and envisioned a toque (hat!) of one. I did some searching but didn’t find anything like it out there. I found some sewn fleece Cthulhu hats, some knitted ones that have a tentacled Cthulhu shape repeated as a band across the hat, and even a full facemask that transforms the wearer into Cthulhu with a tentacle beard, but nothing quite like this. So I decided to make my own!

The Cthulhu toque design took quite a lot of pulling out stitches and reworking rows until I got it just the way I wanted, but I’m really happy with the turnout. Special thank you to my wonderful husband for his feedback along the way.  It’s my first toque design period!  This and toques like it are now for sale in my Etsy Shop and my Artfire Studio.

Speaking of which, my Etsy Shop has been reconfigured and set up after sitting dormant for around 2.5 years, and I also have my ArtFire studio all set up for sales now as well. I probably won’t keep a ton of things stocked at all times, but anything you see in my portfolio can easily be created and put up for purchase. I’ve got 10 Cthulhu toques up on Etsy (1 on ArtFire) and some Huug the Hug Monsters as well!

I sure am enjoying having a little bit of extra time this spring break for crafting! :) Happy sales <3 (I hope)
