Some Random Dork‘s Crochet Corner

📣📣📣

People have kept asking for patterns and stuff and that got me thinking 🤔

And then it got me taking notes and preparing for a little experiment 🔬

I’m currently working on a pattern/instructions for a relatively simple crocheted Rocky the Eridian from Project Hail Mary

And the plan is to post it here and gather some feedback on it (you know, whether I did a good job and made everything easily understandable) and to gauge interest, all that jazz 👍

They’re gay and they do war crimes (…yay?)

Rocky mate bad as hell, statement.

and Galaxy‘s number one evil art enthusiast.

And now I’ve spend the last I don’t know how many hours looking at a video of that damn puppet trying to figure out the shapes and markings of each individual leg.

Thank you for the kind words!

But I couldn’t tell you how to make this little SecUnit even if I tried 😅

I went completely with the spirit of the subject matter and employed Murderbot’s preferred method of „oh shit, oh shit, what am I doing?“ throughout the entire creation process… 😅😅😅

Hi! Thanks! 😁

The short answer: it took ages 😅

Long answer: I’m not really sure just how many hours it took, but I worked on them for several hours over quite a few days each… and I obviously also have other things to do 😜 so it was several weeks before they were done

It would have been quicker if I‘d had a pattern, but since I just vaguely based them on one and then figured the rest out as I went, I also had to redo some parts or make some details several times before I was satisfied with the result 😅🤷
