Sorry for the late reply everyone I was out this morning. soufflé, I didn`t know you were talented with the knitting needles!

I love that little bean shaped knitted hamster shown in green in the link, although a robo would be more of a round ball shape! A plain light-ish brown one more like a robo would be good! Especially if it has the small black button eyes, the pale feet, ears and tail and if possible, the little eyebrows!

I was in a charity shop this morning and payed 20p for a Burger King toy plastic hamster I found in the kiddies toy section.

It zooms forward when you twist the disc under it`s belly and it resembles a golden hamster in colour so I was well chuffed! Here is a blue one but mine is light brown. Mine doesn`t have the car though!

I knit loads of hamsters (and other things!) I'll have to do a thread of souffle's knitted hamsters LOL!

I`d love you to have a go at a robo soufflé and see how it turns out. My wee Rocky (in my avatar image) was a white faced robo, but I`m not sure how easy that would be to knit?

You must have thought I had forgotten your robo RH but I have had a go today and it does look better in real life that in the pics. I was quite pleased with this as I made the pattern up myself. Please PM me your address.

I love that little knitted hamster! You're very talented Souffle! I wish I could knit!

Souffle that is amazing. So so cute. LOVE the eyebrows.

My mum is a keen knitter and she's fab too, think i'll be showing her this and placing an order or two

I LOVE him soufflé and have sent you my details.

I will cherish him and sit him on my laptop. x You and some of the other talented members should have a go at creating various hamster species in in knitted form and sell them because I think they would go down a storm, especially with Christmas coming up! They could even be made into keyrings?
