Knitted or crochet hamsters?
Since there seems to be so many talented members on here who love to knit, sew or crochet, I wondered if anyone would be good at knitting a small ball shape that would resemble a robo and sew on black beaded eyes and felt the paws and ears?!!!! I`m rather useless at anything involving knits or crochet myself, but I know some members have crafted hamsters and other animals from Fimo clay, so wondered if knitted/crochet dwarf hamsters might be the new `thing` to do?  I can just imagine having a little knitted robo sitting on my laptop! 
Anyone inventive enough to give it a go? I would but I would probably end up with a mess full of holes!

Re: Knitted or crochet hamsters?
I`d love to give knitting one a go but I wouldn`t know where to start! It`s probably easy enough for someone who knows how to knit a ball shape and maybe knits dolls or other such things as a hobby.

Here is the pattern:
Ravelry: Hamsterbeans pattern by Emily Stoneking
Simple but not so simple for someone who doesn`t knit!

Re: Knitted or crochet hamsters?
I'll try and do you a robo RH but it will be about a month because I have some other things to cover first and will be on holiday too
What colour would you like? I cant really do agouti patterns so it would need to be sort of fairly one colour though I can embroider some bits!

Re: Knitted or crochet hamsters?
I have a similar little hamster made by a lady who sells them at Southern Hamster Club shows. She's even made me a dom spot hamster finger puppet!

Re: Knitted or crochet hamsters?
I'll have to have a go at making one like Little Nico, All white should be easy enough!! I'm not nearly good enough to do different colours for Pixel and Inch!
