He is finished.  I have not got a TARDIS so he is at the next best thing!!!!!!

Your Dalek is great Gill....even if you say his blaster and whatever it’s called are the wrong way round...I would never have noticed.  I love the telephone box...and at last you’ve posted a pic of yourself…

OH darn I forgot about that, now every-one will recognise me. tch. 

At least now I know you are better.xxxx

Gill just want to add my congrats on finishing ‘Doogie’, he ended up very, very handsome (for a Dalek)

Wow that is a great selection of knitted/crocheted Dr Who’s too.

Also thanks for the posted link to the crocheted dalek pattern earlier, I will try it asap and let you know how it goes.

Now a work colleague watches Dr Who every week - but she mostly watches it for David Tennant - any lifelike/lifesize patterns of him floating around out there anyone!?1?1?1?

No1 daughter has called the DALEK...GUIDO. I don,t know why, she just thought it suited him!!    I prefer DOOGIE.

Brilliant !!!!  x Janet

Here is my latest fella!! This is HERBERT the gardener who is off to live next door with my neighbour.

Herbert is fabulous! wow , he came out so cute, but what a lot of work, your neighbour is very lucky!

I have really enjoyed making him. I started him 2yrs ago.. Doing the Dalek helped me to get cracking and finish him and now I can get on with more new stuff. BTW I really enjoyed our natter last night. 

me too! Thoroughly,
I found a couple old magazines and actually have a couple alan darts..snowmen? and I think a little village of people I seemed to have missed the noahs ark tho....he is a very clever toy designer!

Have you seen the circus in this and last months Simply Knitting???? They are definitely on my TO DO list.

I forgot.....His (ALAN DART) new book is out and all his designs are in it including the ARK. I already have most of his stuff from the Womans Weekly from years ago. I stopped getting WW when they started to go for the younger market and stopped doing the knitting patterns in favour of “trendy” stuff.
