Ever.
Have I said that?
(via Topless Robot) Over at CraftyisCool fibre artist Alison Hoffman has just finished a collection of crocheted Doctor Who dolls. The collection includes all eleven doctors AND a Tardis that they can fit inside.
Eeeee!!! There aren’t enough exclamation points for me to say how amazing this is, so three will have to do. But you get the point. This is the finest workmanship: each yarny little guy manages to capture the essence of its namesake Doctor. I’m not sure how you get that much facial expression from yarn.
Just look at Four:
Just look at him.
And here’s Nine:
Totally badass, right?
Here’s Ten, just for good measure:
They are all this good.
Gander the entire collection here. Gander it! I command you!
And then you can go to Ms. Hoffman’s Etsy shop or her Ravelry shop and buy the frikken’ patterns to make these. They are a very reasonable $6USD each. Also available: a pattern to make Bob Frikken Ross! And Pee Wee Herman! How cool is that? Pretty darn cool. And, it gets better – her website includes a free pattern to make a Harry Potter style Sorting Hat.
I want these sooo hard. Only I can’t crochet. Like, at all. But at least the resulting “Nailed it” post ought to earn me a butt-ton of karma on Reddit. :/
So go browse the awesomeness, buy some patterns, and let me know if you make any of these…
…they are the best thing ever (have I mentioned that?).
How cute is little yarn Tom Baker?!? I’m in love!
Me too. I really need to learn how to crochet.
Ten’s hair….how did they do that???
Isn’t it neat? I’ve seen yarn like that…its probably something like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/roostercf/2089271462/
