Head done, pop-tart half finished.

And then once I do the tail and feet, I'll whip-stitch the edges with black yarn to get that pixelly look, pop the whole thing onto some felt with a magnet, then it's nyaning the hackspace!

It's a present for my niece. She is not yet old enough to be playing with real computers, so she gets one she can gnaw on and drool over and do whatever else babies would do with a knitted laptop stuffed with a foam layer.

The cupboard under the stairs does not make an ideal location for patiently hibernating potatoes.

Instead, it appears to be a portal to Ry'leh.
