FINISHED: Crochet - Dr Who Inspired Tardis Hat

Here is a little something I whipped up after a Netflix Dr Who marathon.

I used Vanna's Choice yarn and a J hook.  I used post stitches to help create the details of the police box.

Allons-y!






Finished: Crochet - Baby Brobee

Pics of latest crochet project: a "Baby" version of the Brobee character from the childrens television show "Yo Gabba Gabba".
I used Red Heart Super Saver yarn and an I hook...the body is mostly done in post stitches...and then stuffed with polyfil.
This is a gift for my grandson, Zander, when he comes to visit me this summer!  I sure hope he likes it!
