I made this cushion last Christmas for my friend, and was really tight on the deadline to make it that I never got to take a photograph of it. It is probably the most geeky thing I have ever made but I think it looks awesome. For you that don't know the reference, Minecraft is a game placing blocks to build anything you can imagine. There are monsters in this game such as creepers, zombies and spiders...so this cushion is based from a creeper.
I think it was an excellent stash buster as well as it used up all the different green yarns that I somehow acquired last year. Definitely one of my favourite FOs!

That is absolute genius! I just may have to bump my other WIPs to make one for my eldest, she's quite the Minecraft player. You are so clever! Chrissie x
ReplyDeleteIt's like a 3-D pixel!
ReplyDeleteI'm not familiar with mine craft but I have to say that your cushion looks fabulous!

My youngest is getting her creeper hat tonight and my 12 year old daughter is on minecraft right now. I have a feeling if I showed them this I would be making versions of it LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's AMAZING! Mhairi's wee niece loves MInecraft I might have to steal your pattern. ALSO you could do a whole minecraft granny square blanket!!!
ReplyDeleteIts easy enough, as long as you have white, black and several shades of green its very easy to make. A minecraft blanket sounds awesome, though it may take a while and I would totally have to draw a chart for it :)
DeleteCool!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fab!!!! I bet your friend loved it. X
ReplyDeleteGreat idea my son would love it. I knitted him a Creeper hat last week.
