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.

Christmas Stocking Knitting Patterns for Your Pets
I’ve shared a lot of Christmas stocking knitting patterns over the years (see posts 1, 2, 3 for example) but what if you want to knit a stocking for a non-human member of your family. If you’re looking for Christmas stocking knitting patterns for your cats or dogs, this is the post for you.
These large paw print stockings are perfect for either dogs or cats, so they’re great to knit if you have both. They are worked in the round using DK weight yarn, and the stocking measures about 17 inches/43 cm from the top to the heel. You can get the pattern from nicolaluke.
The K4 Project has a super cute Kitty Christmas stocking pattern, which is worked in worsted weight yarn. They also have a dog version, or you can buy both and get a discount if you have both dogs and cats to knit for. Both projects have two patterns, showing how to work the stockings flat or in the round.
Put your dog into a Christmas scene with this stocking pattern from ifanhourChild. It shows a dog in a dog house in the snow, and has room for the dog’s name at the top. It’s worked flat using worsted weight yarn and the pattern includes charts for many small and medium dog breeds (there’s a separate listing for bigger dogs) so you can stitch a dog that looks like yours.
Annie’s Woolens has both dog and cat stocking knitting patterns that are worked in worsted weight yarn in the round. You can change up the colors to suit your pet if you want, and they come with an alphabet chart for personalization. Or you can stick with holiday colors and buy a kit to make the dog or cat stocking.
Waiting for Santa Paws is a pattern from Kate Agner on Ravelry that would be cute for a dog or a cat. It looks like a leg with a paw print on the bottom part of the foot and more paw prints running around the top of the leg. This is a great option if you don’t want to mess with a heel turn because it doesn’t have a heel, because dogs and cats don’t have heels so why would their stockings?
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.
