My New Little Friend :)

Isn't he beautiful? Knitted for me (with love!) by [livejournal.com profile] cruentum.




and



Amazing, isn't he. :)

Haha. That is just awesome! :)

LOL I think so too! Nick's new hobby is so cute!

[identity profile] cthonus.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Fantastic!

I've got a pair of dalek egg cosies my friend Reg knitted for me. Maybe we should put them together and see if we can hear the patter of tiny aliens :p

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
LOL!! There is no telling-- picture picture I want to see your cosies!

I love the multicolors! It's a rainbow Dalek!

Isn't he beautiful? The first one, Dalek Skittles, lives in Cardiff with the guys who own the B&B where we stay whenever we go. These are the first two (in user pic).

GORGEOUS!!

I see he's already getting socialized by the man best qualified to do it. :)

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
No one knows how to tame like the Captain!

[identity profile] mrsalemp.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Is he getting ready to pick Jack up? :D

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
He does look like he would, fork-lift style!

[identity profile] verasteine.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
He's gorgeous! For a Dalek, but one must make allowances :).

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Daleks just aren't scary for me anymore, either.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Daleks simply aren't scary anymore, are they?

[identity profile] amand-r.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
OMG THAT ICON! I FORGOT ABOUT THAT CARD.

HE LOOKS GOOD IN TINY.

What are you going to call this one? I can't believe we wasted the AWESOME NAME OF DALEK SKITTLE on the one for Ty Rosa. THAT NAME WAS FOR YOUR DALEK, C.

CALL IT DALEK PRIDE.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
I love that card, it is in my cube posted on my wall :).

I don't know, maybe we can call theirs Dalek Pride and mine Skittles? Makes more sense!

[identity profile] amand-r.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
DUDE WE SHOULD JUST CALL YOURS DALEK AWESOME.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
It really is. I thought the last one was amazing, but damn, he could sell these! Except, well, it'd be illegal. Yeah. At this rate, in six months he could have an entire army of them.

[identity profile] amand-r.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
I think he should send one to John's publicist.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Oh geesh, a sparkle one. Maybe there will be enough of the violet sparkle after he's done with his mum's, and can do one in that.

[identity profile] amand-r.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
I think we should write a letter and he should send it with the dalek.

I bet we could all write a nice, sane letter.

"Dear Mister Barrowman,

This is probably your fiftieth stuffed knitted dalek, but we couldn't not send it because we just wanted to thank you for being part of the reason we are all together today."

AND SO ON.

Then if his publicist writes back, THAT will be when we ask him to help me officiate your wedding on his beath while wearing only his tighty whiteys. You have to HOLD back the crazy for a while. there's a trick to it!

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
I think you are brilliant. I really do.

[identity profile] amand-r.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
HE IS STILL NOT TO BE TRUSTED WITH THE DOVES. HE WILL RELEASE THEM TOO EARLY!

[identity profile] verasteine.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 07:39 am (UTC)(link)
Especially not the brightly coloured ones that look like a car commercial :P. When you've seen them as a stuffed toy, it sort of takes the fear factor out of them. I mean, anyone afraid of a teddy bear cuz it's a bear? :)

[identity profile] sunhawk.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Omg a rainbow Dalek, that's so CRAZY!!

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
He is definitely crazy! And knitted by a guy to boot. Nick loves knitting these things.

[identity profile] rebbyrebs.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
hahah awesome!

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Unreal isn't it? He was on the train to visit his parents when he started it, and some of the ladies on the train said OH LOOK, HE KNITS!!!! Like it is some miracle. :)

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/lindalee_/ 2010-06-01 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
You are so cute! And the little rainbow knitted being is, too!

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
LOL Thanks! Nick will be so pleased Dalek Rainbow got so much attention. He is irresistible! :)

[identity profile] alba17.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It's lovely! I like the rainbow yarn with the black bobbles. LOL at Jack and the Dalek.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Me too. when he first showed me the yarn I thought he was crazy. Now I can't wait to see how his mom's looks--violet sparkle and white!

My roommate wants one of these, and she doesn't even know it yet. ♥

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
LOL. Maybe if you sweet-talk Nick... :)

[identity profile] candesgirl.livejournal.com 2010-06-01 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome! I want one...so does Peter (I totally made him come look at it, hahaha!)

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Do you knit? I should ask you on twitter. Would be faster.

These are the first two--Dalek Blech is the gray one and now lives with [livejournal.com profile] amand_r and her daughter. Probably the most-loved of them so far!

[identity profile] blue-fjords.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
So ... Dalek Blue? At some point? :D Your dalek is so beautiful!! Nick is super duper talented.

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
LOL!!! Dalek Blue? The violet sparkle one for his mum is next!

[identity profile] misswinterhill.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I like this colourway better than Skittles' colours. This one is just gorgeous!

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes this one's colors ended up really amazing. Just think Jenny--THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!

:)

[identity profile] misswinterhill.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Fault is such a strong word. I prefer genius.

[identity profile] heleninwales.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! What a wonderful Dalek. Nick definitely has a talent for knitting them. :)

[identity profile] paragraphs.livejournal.com 2010-06-02 02:32 pm (UTC)(link)
He does indeed. I watched him when we were in London, making the one we gave to the guys who own the B&B where we stay, and I just had to shake my head in amusement. And admiration! This one's colors turned out especially well. I am glad to have a rainbow one, he is so pretty!
