A Joker potato peeler

[fuelish]

My wife is a big Joker fan and her B-day is coming up. I have done some stuff for other people and felt I needed to do(Meaning actually finish) something for her.
I know the Joker peeler is a lancashire peeler, but they are a little hard to find in NC, so I made one out of a cheap peeler, some dowling, and green cotton yarn.
I went back and looked at the one posted in the Joker thread, I got mine a little short, the yarn color(and thickness) is wrong, and it is not made from the correct item to begin with. But it looks OK if you do not have a reference handy. (Also, she likes it)

Great job, the important part is SHE likes it

Thanks. I picked up another cheap peeler and I am going to try and get the proportions more correct. A longer handle, less depth for the area of the cording. I found some more correct cording but I like the color of the stuff I used(Thanks to GreatYarns). It is a very Joker color, so I will use it again, probably in a double wrap for more thickness.
This a a fun quick project that makes a neat prop. A good add on to your TDK or Joker prop set. You can also use it as a peeler if you do it right.

I do like it. It goes nicely with my purple gloves.
