A conversation with my characters.
From
cedarlibrarian: Dr. Who fans: Put away those knitting needles or else.
I still have the entire first and second season of Dr. Who sitting here, waiting to be watched. But you have to have respect a fandom that knits its favorite characters.
I have Stargate Atlantis chevron socks (thank you,
wyomingnot!) but a whole character? Not even needlepoint.
In the meantime, my Out Of Bounds characters and I need to have a little memorial day chat.
Now, John. I realize you just got the pressure taken off you. But that doesn't mean you just get to lay around. There's plot! You have a competition to win. Maybe several. There is much work to be done in between here and there.
Rodney. I recognize that you've just put a lot of effort into convincing John to quit that ball-busting job. I respect that. I also realize that you have students, and a busy schedule. But you can't let him fall flat on his face. Yes, yes, I realize he's exhausted himself and you want him to take a break. But you're going soft. You'd never have put up with this in January.
Sonja. Please, show up soon. I think these guys need your unique brand of self-absorbed cynicism.

Actually, it's surprisingly relaxing, making those. Plus, cuddly evil. What more could you want?

Who knows, maybe by the time the next European con with Hewlett comes around, I'll have finished the matching Boy-Dalek to this one.
They would make nice toys for Baz and you can never start to early on those baby-fans.

EX-TER-MI-KNIT!!
AdiposeFat Baby patterns as soon as I saw them, plus I have the knitted Dalek pattern (and possibly a crochet version as well).At some point I should adapt my usual doll pattern (© Jean Greenhowe for the basic design!) for a knitted Cyberman. Shouldn't be too difficult, though people keep asking me: "Yes, but which *version*???"

Add short spiky black hair and pointed ears? Yes, it could work (http://crys.mrks.org/sga/im/crysothemis-johninkimonobig.jpg).

Messy hair a la Harry is easy too - see the one on my website, for instance. But at that size, I don't usually bother with ears (or noses!).

I myself responded to the bbc thing by finding the adipose pattern and making one myself. Well. Mostly. Still need to do the face...

And they could have detachable thigh-holsters!
I like it. And apparently, they're anatomically correct. *g*

Yes, I have eaten a puddle jumper!
But for the most adorable plushy!John and plushy!Rodney, go here (http://www.setsunakou.com/ufo/stargatesg1.html)
...the Daniel's not bad, either.
Sadly, I am totally c*** at knitting. Something about the tension eludes me and even blanket squares come out as wonky parallelograms. Heaven alone knows how a dalek would come out ...Jabba the Hutt anyone?
