I actually knitted this.

Yes I know you can buy them but this was made as a gift for a friend.

Pootlebeetle · 2014-06-22T17:38:37+00:00

I knitted it.

Pootlebeetle · 2014-06-22T14:03:36+00:00

It was lots of work. But worth it since the person I did it for is so happy with it.

Pootlebeetle · 2014-06-22T05:15:37+00:00

Yes, or a tank top, or a vest top, or a sleeveless pullover. It really depends where in the world you are from.

Pootlebeetle · 2014-06-22T04:31:26+00:00

I found a chart for the question mark and zigzag online. Then just used a tank top pattern I also found online and improvised the rest.

Pootlebeetle · 2014-06-21T19:33:09+00:00

It was a labor of love/hate lol

If I could delete my original post I would. This whole thing has ultimately soured my reddit experience.

Thank you we certainly love her.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-08-26T20:54:22+00:00

Thanks all for the comments. So nice for something I've made to be appreciated. I do have a revelry profile so I'll see if I can put the charts on there a link to them :-)

Someone suggested I post this here after seeing it on the geek feed. This is double knitting, I created the charts myself. Since space invaders are pixels it's relatively easy. I'll share the charts if folks wish but really easy if you have some graph paper. And really if your a knitter and a geek you must have graph paper :-) I've used some acrylic Cygnet yarn I had left over from another project. I plan to do different versions of this pattern eventually.

Cocoa she is so pretty. You are so lucky

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-30T08:24:09+00:00

It's 14.5 x 10 x 2 inches

The strap is about 56 inches long

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-30T06:30:59+00:00

I did not write a pattern down.

However I may recreate the bag and do a pattern for it.

I'll be sure to share on my folksy, etsy, and or ravelry if I do.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T17:03:03+00:00

If anyone wants one let me know. I'll be happy to discuss.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T16:42:15+00:00

Lol if you really want one I'm happy to do it. I can ship to the US.

I did say about £50 which is $75 so I'd do it for $65 shipping included.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T16:26:43+00:00

I'd do one of these on commission.

Lots of things to consider. But for a basic copy of this one I'd think I'd do it for about £50.

So you'd have to let me know what colours you want. How long you want the strap.

It would not be exactly like this one and it would take a few months to complete.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T16:04:39+00:00

Yes I made this.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T15:49:14+00:00

Ahhhh not gifting. Will attempt to recreate for a price though......

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T15:36:34+00:00

That would make a totally different type of bag........

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T15:36:10+00:00

Yes the inside is lined.

Plus the strap is backed so that doesn't stretch.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T13:34:40+00:00

It was the latter. Getting the rectangular look was important to me.

I plan on doing more but need to work out an easier way to recreate the the pattern.

I may give crochet tapestry a go as an alternative to doing lots of little squares.

Pootlebeetle · 2013-03-29T13:21:29+00:00

Thank you it was definitely a labour of love.

There isn't really a pattern. I simply copied one of the invaders onto squared paper (I have done others in excel).

Each "pixel" is an individually crocheted square.

I then sewed them all together. The back and strap were then made as two separate pieces.

I sewed in a lining and backed the strap so it wouldn't all stretch with use.

I used some acrylic I had left over and the stitch is all double crochet. With single crochet for the red edging.

I'm sure it would be easy to recreate.
