A long time ago in a galaxy far far away.....

So its Day 4 of Pinterest fortnight and trust me making a project everyday is really starting to take its toll! I'm fairly sure I have a project in at least every room of the house! But onto todays inspiration!!!! And if you haven't already guessed its a Star Wars one!

 

 

I'm not 100% on the origin if this design but I think its from witchcityink.com, if any one can confirm this please let me know and I'll amend this blog and set up a link! I absolutely love this, it popped up when I was looking for sugar schools and it seemed so perfect!

 

My entire family is Star Wars obsessed and my Dad used to be called Darth Vader by his work colleagues. I think they'd all be proud of me crafting Star Wars goodness!

 

I started off by tweaking the design a bit because I wanted mine to be completely my own and this is the design I ended up with! Apologies for the crumple Little Knitwit decided to help me out on the photography!

 

 

Then it seemed pretty clear to me what I needed to do with it! Embroidery of course! So I think it officially needs to be called "Star Wars a New Hoop!" I'm going to stop with the bad jokes now! Or at least I'll try!

 

 

I really don't see why they didn't go for this look in the movies..... much more friendly

 

 

I'd show you what the back looks like but my momma taught me that a lady never shows her backside in public!

 

 

 Hearts for a nose and flowers for eyes not Darths usual look!

 

 

I loved doing this! I'm finding the more fun I think the finished product will be the quicker I'm getting it done!

 

And I have one more surprise! There is going to be another star wars craft coming very soon in......

 

Star Wars: Return of the Knitting!

 

Please Lord let me think of another star wars project so I can have the trilogy!!! Please!!!!

 

Much Love

 

And May The Force Be With You

Stitch

Although the title of this post might be confusing I mean Stich as in Lilo and Stitch not as in sewing! although I did do some of that for this project as well!

Here's the little guy the toy was based on ....

Isn't he adorable!!!! And this is my version! I knitted it for a friend and I'm really pleased with it!

I made him for a friend and I couldn't find a pattern so I made my own! But don't worry I've got it safely written down in case I need to make another one .  All the details are in felt! The only part I had real trouble with was his mouth, but its hard to make pointy teeth look friendly! (unless your a Disney animator). All in all I think he's pretty cute and my friend was really pleased with him!

anyways by for now
