I adore this wonderful crocheted Cthulhu from The Yarning Portal. What makes it particularly notable is that H.P. Lovecraft himself was an avid knitter. In "A Means to Freedom: The Letters of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard" there's a long series of letters describing their mutual love of yarn creations. Sadly, the crocheted versions of Conan and Cthulhu they mention have never been found.

Happily, we their fans have enjoyed many of Howard's and Lovecraft's yarns.
