Dr Who Fans Unite

April 24, 2008 by Vikram Goyal

I am not really a big fan of Dr who and watch it without too much interest or care but was confused when he kept talking about Jelly Babies, well now I am confused no more for those of you who do not know what a jelly baby is… it is indeed a UK sweet or lolly or candy (depending on your nationality) that Dr who uses for energy, I guess it’s his kind of trail mix.
It seems that Dr who has a side kick after all it is the infamous jelly baby that is getting it’s very own cult following by Dr who fans.  If that was not enough for the Dr who fans I have included some links below to other free Dr who patterns including the Dr who knitted scarf pattern.

    A jelly baby is exactly what it says – a baby shaped candy made out of jelly. It’s similar to a fruit jelly candy and not as hard as a jujube. It doesn’t stick to your teeth either. They are very fruity and can be found at any English candy store in your area.

Practice Colorwork on a Cute Knit Bunny

Sometimes I feel like knitters get intimidated to try new things because they think they need to start with a big project. Your first time working in the round doesn’t need to be a sock, and your first colorwork doesn’t need to be a sweater, for example. You can find little projects that use the skills you want to learn to build your confidence before you move on to something that requires more time commitment.

This adorable knit bunny, for example.

The colorwork bunny from Knit Picks was designed by Amy Munson and is a kind of bowling pin shaped bunny complete with a knit hat, contrasting inner ears and a little stranded colorwork on its body. Note that the ears are attached the the hat not the bunny, but you could stitch them to the bunny if you’d rather.

It’s worked from the bottom up and also has a tiny pompom tail you can’t see in the picture but it’s a really cute touch. There are a variety of little fair isle patterns to choose from to make the best bunny for you.

The bunny comes out about 8 inches tall (or just over 20 cm) and use several colors to complete the colorwork, depending on the design you choose.

You can purchase the pattern by itself from Knit Picks, or make a kit that includes sport weight yarn in all the colors you need for your creation. There are gray and brown options for the main body of the bunny, but of course if you’re using your own yarn you can make it whatever color you like.

Once you’ve tried colorwork (maybe also working in the round and shaping if those are skills you haven’t used before) in a little project like this you’ll be ready to take on something bigger in no time.

Check out the pattern on Knit Picks.
