I'm Working On A Prototype For Rok Tahk As We Speak! As My Second-ever Pattern Design, She's ... Not

I'm working on a prototype for Rok Tahk as we speak! As my second-ever pattern design, she's ... not so much a step up from Murf as, er, several ladders up from Murf. But she's coming along nicely and I think she's going to look great when she's done.

A few people have asked about the patterns, so: my ultimate aim is definitely to share them, probably via Ravelry? But there are a few things about the Murf pattern I'd like to tweak, to make sure he's perfect before I release him into the wild - and at the moment Rok Tahk is occupying a lot of my brain/free time, so it might be a while yet. Stay tuned!

Paramount don't seem to be too interested in making Star Trek: Prodigy merch, so I decided to take matters into my own hands/crochet hook. Six prototypes, a lot of yarn, and even more swearing later, I've designed my very first crochet pattern.

Behold - Murf!

Next up ... Rok Tahk???

Series: Part 2 of Last Resort

Summary:

2271. Gabriel never intended to swap one set of secrets for another, but if there’s one thing he’s learned, it’s that life has a way of surprising you.

Una doesn’t want a partner - especially not on a mission that threatens to bring back bad memories. And yet, somehow, she’s ended up stuck with both.

But with Section 31 closing in and time running out, Gabriel, Una and the Network have to pin their hopes on a risky plan that could finally provide them with the breakthrough they need. Assuming, of course, that it doesn’t bring everything crashing down in the process.

Sequel to Lost Cause.

Sharing again (a day late, whoops) for 30 Days of Prodigy, day four - Murf!

Rebloogalooging again for 30 Days of Prodigy, day 17 - Rok Tahk!

It's taken 3 months of trial and error (mostly error), but...

... here's Rok Tahk!

Her FACE

I learned a lot designing and making her; she's definitely the most complicated piece I've crocheted to date. There are still a few things I want to fix - but given that she's only my second attempt at designing a crochet pattern, I think she's turned out pretty well! And Murf agrees.
