Make your own Dalek replica - Free pattern!

[penwiper]

Okay, maybe not quite what you were expecting...:rolleyes

EXTERMAKNIT! When hobbies collide...

Actually, though - and y'all are the only people who will appreciate this - that sucker is to-scale, as much as the limitations of the media will allow. I worked backwards from actual Dalek plans via the ratios of knit and purl stitches to come up with as perfect a scale model as I could.

Plus, it's cuddly!

Very neat, thank you. Never thought I'd see the Daleks associated with anything Cuddly though. :lol

Well if you think about it the Doctor did say in The Christmas Invasion, "How very Arthur Dent, now there was a nice man." when referring to having just saved the world in his pajamas. Or at least something similar. Same universe or a tribute to the late Douglas Adams who also wrote a couple Doctor Who episides, you be the judge. Either way I like how the Daleks turned out. Now I need to find someone who can knit me up a couple. Thank you.

Glad y'all like the pattern and hope it's useful!

You should put a little voice box in it, so every time you squeeze it says EXTERMINATE

Never thought I'd say this about anything knitted but that is so cool.

Just when pepakura was starting to take off. I can hardly wait for the IM helmet pattern to show up. How well does resin stick to yarn? Hmmmmm?

 

[Egon Spengler]

Someone should do this full size!

I guess Daleks are using the infinite improbability drive to travel now..

Good work!
