Sasquatch Captured!
Shaenon: Folk musician Jacob Haller appears in this storyline as mad cryptozoologist and Sasquatch hunter Dr. Haller, a portrayal on which Jeff and I (mostly Jeff) have taken some creative liberties. But his monster-knitting skills, as portrayed in this strip, are not exaggerated. To prove it, he sent Jeff and I our very own handmade yarn Sasquatches. As you can see, Robin loves our new Yarnsquatch.
Thank you so much, Jacob! This is amazing!
Channing: Man, I am so glad I wrote that gag, because it apparently lead immediately to my getting awesome stuff. For visual reference, here’s mine. As you can see, mine is a Yeti rather than a Sasquatch. Thanks so much!
A most child friendly Sasquatch. And a most Sasquatch friendly child.
Yes the Yeti is awesome too. Good on Jacob.
Thanks! When people asked me what I was making, and who I was making it for, the answer was a little more involved than usual with these guys.
Did the button come with the yeti, or is it a Jeff addition?
The Yeti came right out of the box advertising his political views.
A friend of mine made a bunch of the buttons for me. If you look at the first of Shaenon’s photos, you can see the Sasquatch has one, too, though you can’t read it.
The squeezable surveillance device your child will love even when the beta wave transmitter is turned off!
He’s a boy? All this time I thought Robin was a girl.
It’s not infallible, but usually Robins are boys and Robyns are girls.
Really? I’ve known both kinds, both ways.
Note the bright red chest. Females’ colors are more subdued.
*Almost does a spit take of lunch* Well played 😀
“Wellington High School?”
Someone wrote to me asking about the pattern, and it occurs to me that it might be of general interest, so: You can find it on ravelry here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/yeti-and-sasquatch
(And I’m jwgh on ravelry, if anyone wants to track me down. 🙂 )
He has Shaenon’s eyes- hope he won’t need glasses too. I hate having to wear them… Hope Yarnsquatch adapts to the new direction this country is taking… a lot of rigid adults are storing up years of anguish. He’s a President, not a Q…
