And I love, love, love how my Dalek turned out.
I used 2,5 mm circular needles (magic looped the whole thing) which produced a nice thick fabric. I sacrificed (or should I say exterminated?) a pillow to stuff it. It's only lightly stuffed, because I didn't want to loose the Dalek shape.
Here is a size reference. He's 21 cm tall.
Here he (it) is in front of his archnemesis - The Doctor and his companion in season 4, Donna. And a fellow Dalek. 
One more picture for good measure. 
I'm almost reluctant to give him away. But I still have some yarn left (Menada by Tetex, 100% acrylic - it's not too coarse, and not too difficult to work with, although it does squeak under your fingers a bit). I could make myself another one. I will make another one. Probably. Someday.
I have to admit that I don't know this little guy, but he is cute.
ReplyDeleteI don't like the yarn that you are using, but it is ok for toys.
Nedavno je i moje malo zlato H počela gledati Doktora who i bulji u TV opčinjena! Ne smijem joj pokazati tvog Daleka - predivan je, poželjela bi ga i ona a ja ne želim i ne želim imati posla s bobbles!
ReplyDeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteOdličan je!
ReplyDeleteAh, vidim ja da gledam pogrešne serije... da gledam Dr.Who valjda bih i ja plela tog daleka, ovako moja hiperaktivna mašta sanja o pletenju džempera jednom R.Armitageu ili R. Penry-Jonesu ... kako bih rado isprobavala pletivo na njima svaka 2-3 reda ... da budem sigurna u točnu mjeru ;-)
