My friend Adaiha sent me the link to these awesome Star Trek pot holders designed and knitted up by Ilana of Off the Hook Astronomy that were a super-thoughtful wedding gift for friends. Ilana provides the pattern and a nicely illustrated chart for you to knit your own, too!

Spaceman Softie
I spied this wonderful green-haired spaceman softie in the Geek Crafts Flickr pool by yermit. This led me to yermit‘s Flickr photostream of all sorts of lovely softies and then I clicked through to her Etsy shop and you can buy them!!! You *must* click through and see everything. I love her use of textures! Love it!
Robot Scan Love
Robots are cute, ask anybody. I was just shopping at Forever 21 and scored an adorable Robot Heart Necklace, then open my inbox to find a submission from Rich Robotsoon. This Robot Scan Love Cross Stitch has it all, robots, clever word play, binary, and hearts. You can find it, and other cute robot cross stitch, at the Robot Soon Etsy shop.
TARDIS MAME Console
The phrase “It all started with Linux” and a picture of Charles Bronson occur with in the first few paragraphs of Simon Jansen‘s thorough, rambling, and completely freaking awesome how-to post about his TARDIS MAME Console. It’s one thing to build your own TARDIS, it’s a wholly different thing to build your own TARDIS, then construct a custom made MAME console to fit inside (the picture on the left is the TARDIS, closed. On the right, we see it open, with the console on). This might be the geekiest thing I’ve ever posted, a real trifecta of geekgasm worthy art.
TARDIS Shrapnel
Irishdaydreamer crafted this totally amazing hand painted piece of TARDIS Shrapnel for a Doctor Who Swap on Craftster. I imagine her swap partner was really chuffed, I know I’d love this!
K-9 Filet Crochet
Doctor Who Week continues with this beautiful K-9 Filet Crochet by Meredee on LiveJournal. I’m not very familiar with filet crocheting, nor do I own an abundance of doilies, but this awesome K-9 Filet Crochet is making me rethink all that.
