10. Unicorn Bookmark
The perfect way to hold your place in your favorite book. It is simple and elegant, but the colorful jewels lead to the little unicorn trinket. A discrete way to boast geek girl pride.
9. Unicorn Clay Necklace
Hang your Unicorn pride around your neck with this clay necklace. This delicate piece captures the grace of the mythical beast, and the sparkling eye will capture attention.
8. Embroidered Unicorn
This adorable unicorn is embroidered in bold colors on a heart fabric background. This little guy has some major personality with his spiky hair, flaring nostrils, and flower collar.
7. Luna the Unicorn Amigurumi
Everyone could use a cuddle Unicorn. This pattern for Luna will help you make a Unicorn army to take over the world with… or at least to snuggle with. Make one for every geeky girl you know and spread the Unicorn word.
6. Valentine Unicorn
This little Valentine Unicorn was sculpted from Polymer Clay. Her big eyes and swirly pink hair might be a cuteness overload for some, but shouldn’t everyone make an exception for cuteness on Valentines day?
5. Where Rainbows Come From
We interrupt all of the previous cuteness with a revelation on the origins of rainbows. This 4×4 print says it all. Position it above your computer so the Unicorn appears to pour rainbow geekiness into your monitor.
4. My Other Ride is a Unicorn
This shirt makes me want to visit my mom’s ranch and wear it while horseback riding. Either that, or wear it while beating my friends in some Mario Cart.
3. Unicorn Hat
This hat is perfect if you want to tell the world about your Unicorn/Geek status. However, it might make it a little awkward if your friend is wearing the shirt featured in #4!
2. Mounted Unicorn
Some people appreciate a good trophy. This crochet Unicorn’s name is Matthew, and he perhaps got bested by a geek girl who then decided to show him off. Matthew is sure to make visitors do a double take.
1. The Last Unicorn
The last in this roundup is an icon for many geek girls. The Last Unicorn is a book and movie that many grew up loving. This little plushie made from microplush, faux fur, and faux suede also has a wire skeleton that makes her poseable. The crafter artist did a great job of bringing to life our favorite Unicorn.
So, this week’s Friday Round-Up celebrates one of my heroes, Darwin. The well-known two legged take on the ichthys symbol is used by fans of evolution (can a scientific theory have fans? Does it matter if it does or not? It’s popularity’s kinda irrelevant; it’s still true…). Darwin Fish (Or Tonys, as all good Feeters know) are rough depictions of Ichyostega, the remains of which are important transitional fossils between tetrapods and fish, since they have a tail and gulls akin to fish but amphibian style skull and limbs.
