Star Wars: Jawa


Well would you believe it. More Star Wars crochet!


When I heard that Lucy Ravenscar had released a Jawa pattern as part of her crochet Star Wars series, I bought it almost immediately...


Then proceeded to do other projects.


Until last night, when I picked up my crochet hook intending to "just start it of"...


Within a matter of hours, not only was he finished but he was wrapped and given to my husband... An early Christmas present?!


A brilliant night's work, and my husband is thrilled with him too :) So cute!

The only differences I made to the pattern were...
1. I added an extra row to the hood, probably because my guage or wool thickness was slightly off!
2. I chained 30 for the shoulder strap, again probably because of my guage.
3. I used bright yellow buttons for the eyes! I have a huge button collection, and these beauties came from Singapore :)

    It looks awesome! I have done her Yoda but have never got around to making him a coat, you have inspired me to get on it :)

      Thank you! I think Yoda is one of my favourites from the series (you can see mine here: http://creativechaosart.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/star-wars-yoda.html !) Good luck making the coat, and thank you for commenting :)
