Patterns for your gamer/sci-fi needs

I've been exploring over the Internet, and I found sooo many nice (and odd) things to knit, crochet, etc. Here the first post about what I found... all projects related to ner.. gamers, sci-fi fans and so on...

· Just... lol. Here the link if you wanna make this cross stitch project and more, there are also Wii, Nintendo and other logos to try.

· Space Invaders socks to keep you warm while you play!... I wonder if there is anybody who still plays this old arcade video game.

... And why not a cute space invader toy to hug?

· Battlestar Galactica is back... I don't know anything about that series, but here is something related to it, a Cylon Hat.

Super Mario!

·Goomba hat from Super Mario!, tbh, I don't remember seeing this little guy on game, but I have played Super Mario Bross, it is just a classic!

And to match (omg don't do that if you don't want to look like a nerd!!) a Mario Villain Scarf and cute green mushroom mittens (I love those but I would not wear em :p)

· Pac-Man!! <3

More free Mario patterns (and Pokemon's) here .

·I have no idea who Katamari Damacy Prince of all Cosmos is but here a baby hat (omg who on earth would put that on a baby? lol)

·Nintendo Case... oh memories...

Hows Kitty doing?

Dije que iba a hacer un amigurumi de Kitty, y ya lo tengo casi listo. Para empezar me ayude con uno de los tutoriales que hay en youtube, este especificamente, me parecio el más claro y después ya me fui guiando sola...

I said I was gonna make a Kitty amigurumi... and I'm on it... well, it's almost done :D.

Saqué las instrucciones de este post, esta bien explicado, no tuve ningún problema, y eso que es mi primer amigurimi, y soy muy nueva en crochet, (empecé en julio). Me gusta como quedo, y eso que soy muy exigente, hay un par de errores en la cabeza que se notan pero bueno, fue lo primero que hice, lo demás salió bien :). Una amiga me decía que el vestido de Kitty es rosa y que tiene la nariz amarilla, la que tiene el vestido morado es su hermana, Mimí, como dice Gaby, la sombra de Kitty como la hermana de Soledad jajaja.

As I mentioned before, I took the pattern from here, it's my first amigurumi, and I'm new in crochet, but it wasn't that hard.

I'm happy with the results, although Kitty's dress is pink, her sister's, Mimi, is purple and also Kitty's original snout is yellow but I don't have yellow yarn cos I don't look well on that color. Anyway... here the result up to now:

(el encendedor no es mio :p)

Primero pensé que como es blanca, se iba a ensuciar muuuy rápido y seguro que las sobrinas de mi amiga a quien tenia pensado darsela en segundo lugar, se la iban a sacar, entonces queria darle un uso, yo tenía un velador con una coneja de tela pegada, queda bastante lindo, me imagine la Kitty alrededor del caño de la lampara como una bailarina de caño :p pero tiene las patas muy cortas, asi que mejor no. Asi que se me ocurrio ponerle popurrí dentro y que funcione de perfumero para ponerlo en un cajón. Me costo conseguir el popurrí, bah, encontré al azar, pasé por el centro un día y vi colgadas bolsitas en uno de esas "florerias" que estan por ahí, compre una bolsa con popurrí aroma a cherry (tiene olor a gelatina para mi) me costo conseguir el vellón también, pase y pregunte en mercerias y no tenian, asi que fui directamente a un local de telas y almohadones y conseguí.

At first I thought: "it's white, it's gonna get dirty soon" or "my friend's nieces are gonna 'insert correct phrasal verb here'" and then I thought it'd be nice to put it on a lamp, like if the toy was holding the pipe (like a pipe dancer [is that the word?]) but I realized the legs were too short and then I just thought of a ( damn, I forgot the word lol) kind of scent thingi with potpourri inside, and well, I went to buy the potpourry in a little flower shop, it smells really good, it's cherry scent (it smells like jell-o for me) and the (I forgot again the word) to stuff it, that was hard to get, I went to the (I really need to learn the shop names again) and they told me they didn't sell it or they didn't have stock... so I just went to a fabric shop and I finally got it.

I put the potpourry in the middle and then other layer of the stuffin.

Jak masz na imíe?

I love languages... it's my thing, so far I speak 3 (Spanish, English and Portuguese). And I'm looking forward to learn French and Polish, and I'd like to learn German, Finnish or an Asian language.

I think it's essential to learn new things everyday, and for me, it's essential to learn those things on my both main languages (Spanish and English).

I don't know how (I never know how I find sites, I think the best sites are found randomly) I found a site to learn Polish, and then I ended in a channel on youtube, and that channel guided me to other. (I'm learning English-Polish, English-French and so on, I think it's easier that way because English it's a "plain" language)

They have pretty videos, and they are really easy to understand and practice. The channels are AbcSchoolOfPolish and travellinguist. The last one it's very dynamic and it has a lot of languages to learn from French, Spanish, Portuguese and German to Hebrew, Thai, Russian and many others. Each language has different categories, and each category has 3 levels, in the first one you learn the translation, how to pronounce it (they repeat like 3 or 4 times the word or expression) and how to write it, in the second level you learn how to pronounce it and you hear the word just 2 or 3 times, in the 3rd level you just have to read the word.

Other useful language tool is Wordrefence.com, I go there every time I have doubts, and I have a forum account so, if I want to know how to say, pronounce or define a word or expression I go there and ask and people answer me really quickly.
And also, if you want to know how to pronounce a word or sentence, you can type it in this site, IVONA and you can hear it in English, Polish and Romanian, It is a useful site that people recommened me on the Polish forum.

I'm learning fast, my dad used to tell me that it's easier to learn languages once you have learned 3 or 4.

Do zobaczenia, do widzenia :)
