Now you can have everyone’s favourite elder god in plushie form. He’ll protect you from the monsters in your closet and under your bed while you sleep.
You can have him made in any colour you can imagine. You even make him sparkly! Sparklethulhu!
He just looks so huggable! Who doesn’t want an elder god they can hug?
Is it spring yet? Here in the Great White North it certainly is not, but I’m sure it will be soon (that’s what I have to keep telling myself). In the meantime, I’m stuck with what I can only assume is gnome fever. I’ve been looking at all sorts of gnomes on DeviantArt, remembering the days of green grass and fresh warm air, but I was stopped in my tracks when I caught sight of Deviant user Jevist’s Gnome Family Portrait. I love so much about these little plushie guys, from their goofy eyes and poofy beards to their detailed belts, but what I love the most is how Gnombie fills my mind with terribly wonderful ideas of a world full of tiny undead gnomes, complete with their colorful pointy hats. Don’t stop at just the family portrait though, continue on to read about Gnibble, and don’t miss Voracio, the gnome eating Alien!
I’m not sure where the Internet meme that is Long Cat began, but this scarf is adorable. The creator Fluffy Ducky lives in Singapore and prefers designing her own knits to using patterns. Her long cat scarf is perfect for your LOL Cat loving friends!

10. Unicorn Bookmark
The perfect way to hold your place in your favorite book. It is simple and elegant, but the colorful jewels lead to the little unicorn trinket. A discrete way to boast geek girl pride.
Hang your Unicorn pride around your neck with this clay necklace. This delicate piece captures the grace of the mythical beast, and the sparkling eye will capture attention.
This adorable unicorn is embroidered in bold colors on a heart fabric background. This little guy has some major personality with his spiky hair, flaring nostrils, and flower collar.
Everyone could use a cuddle Unicorn. This pattern for Luna will help you make a Unicorn army to take over the world with… or at least to snuggle with. Make one for every geeky girl you know and spread the Unicorn word.
This little Valentine Unicorn was sculpted from Polymer Clay. Her big eyes and swirly pink hair might be a cuteness overload for some, but shouldn’t everyone make an exception for cuteness on Valentines day?
We interrupt all of the previous cuteness with a revelation on the origins of rainbows. This 4×4 print says it all. Position it above your computer so the Unicorn appears to pour rainbow geekiness into your monitor.
This shirt makes me want to visit my mom’s ranch and wear it while horseback riding. Either that, or wear it while beating my friends in some Mario Cart.
3. Unicorn Hat
This hat is perfect if you want to tell the world about your Unicorn/Geek status. However, it might make it a little awkward if your friend is wearing the shirt featured in #4!
Some people appreciate a good trophy. This crochet Unicorn’s name is Matthew, and he perhaps got bested by a geek girl who then decided to show him off. Matthew is sure to make visitors do a double take.
The last in this roundup is an icon for many geek girls. The Last Unicorn is a book and movie that many grew up loving. This little plushie made from microplush, faux fur, and faux suede also has a wire skeleton that makes her poseable. The crafter artist did a great job of bringing to life our favorite Unicorn.
In December GeekCrafts brought your attention to Angry Birds Plushie by Obsessively Stitching and today we bring you Amigurumi Angry Birds Pig Pattern by The Itsy Bitsy Spider amigurumi-Crochet. But it doesn’t stop there! She has also made the Angry Birds goldfinch to go along with the pig, and she has an amigurumi pattern for the cardinal available in ravelry. I’m personally tempted to make a bunch, fill them with beans, and set up elaborate constructions with the pigs to knock down with the birds. Sounds like a great party game to me!
I was recently asked to make a Kirby plushie by a friend, but not just any stuffed Kirby would do. She specifically asked for one based off of the video game Kirby’s Epic Yarn. In my search for pictures of Kirby plushies I came across this adorable Kirby craft made by Shift! on Instructables.com. Though it’s not a plushie it’s absolutely adorable and easy to make.
