The Daleks Will Return

(In Dalek voice) Procrastinate!!! EX-PLAIN!!!

Okay, in 2017 I tatted a lace Dalek and took it to the Maker Faire in Milwaukee to meet the big Daleks. (Daleks are fictional extraterrestrial cyborgs in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who.)  My little Dalek got a lot of attention and people asked for the pattern. Well, I'd made it up in a hurry and hadn't written it down. Forgot all about it until now!
I've made a start, figuring it out and making improvements as they occur to me. Just so you know, this 3 dimensional pattern will use tricky techniques such a a bead inside a ring and block tatting. 

Also - IMPORTANT - the tatted Dalek is not a toy. It has many small parts that could be hazardous to young children.


The one I'm currently working on is inspired by the original gray and blue colors of a Dalek in 1964. But these days, Daleks come in all colors. This should by fun! Just ignore their shouts of "Exterminate!"
