Mm... slimy.

So, I'm in college, separated from my yarn, needles, and library of knitting books. BUT, fear not, for I still have 6 balls and some gumption, and this is one of the patterns I want to churn up in the next few months.Isn't he so adorable!? I have a small obsession with snails, and this pattern has the realistic cuteness of a snail, but without those slime trails. Admit it, everyone would be down with mollusks if it weren't for the slime. Or the open circulatory system.

And, it even comes with the option to turn it into a slug and a seashell- detachable shell! It's like making three dolls in one! Make sure to thank K2SC1 for this delightful knit.

What!? Who!?


I'm like, hopping up and down with happiness, because out there back on the internet now are... DR. WHO Patterns! How awesome!

I was snooping about on ravelry, and I swear I might've wet myself, if it wasn't 8 AM.

Anyway, there's a knitted Dalek, which I'm afraid of (the Dalek, not the pattern), and a Stuffed Tardis brought to you by this person, (and, of course, this person!) There's also the dearest, cutest Adipose that BBC forced Mazzmatazz to take down. It's been saved in the annals of death by copyright.

Although the issue hasn't been solved and the BBC still kind of sucks, at least there's knitting to be done. How can something that thought up something so adorable be so, so evil? Hopefully more patterns will return, or maybe I'm just a month behind the news and they have, somewhere.
