It's definately creative!

[Technosis]

That is kinda neat. The Atari one could be altered to be a "cosy" or dust cover for a modern system..

[Lucky Man]

That's great! I think this old couch potato needs to get a few of those.

This is going to She Who Must Be Obeyed right now, stuff an iPod for my birthday, I want an Atari pillow I can cry into when I can't qualify for Pole Position!

 

I can now see a valid reason for "craft".

[ATARIPITBULL]

Talk about skill, you can tell from a mile away that its Pitfall on the tv and the 2600 system WOW, is all I can say.

It looks to be croche which is harder to do than nit into shapes like that so I appricate it just for the craftmanship.

 

EDIT: The console looks croche, but now that I took a second look at the tv screen it looks like a pattern put threw a nitting machine...cheaters

Is that a cartridge or are you just happy to see me? Seems like that Atari is kind of excited.

[Shawn]

They really should have put a couple of rows of orange trim on the face of the switch pannel to make the consoles features more defined. Also a row around the cart slot would have helped but it's still really neat.

My wife, with considerable experience in both crochet and knitting, says it's definitely all crochet.

Really? Wow, then there is alot of work there. I have alot of knitting experince also but a womans touch (in this case glare) can call it better than I. I could have sworn the screen looks like machine work but seeing as it is all hand work, I apprciate this all the more.

 

EDIT: Any other men on this site got sewing\knitting skills or at least willing to admit they do?

Now I really know some of what goes on in your "manly" basement. Oh and always remember "real men wear pink."

 

Back on topic... Nothing stupid about the craft work it's really beautiful and creative. It's also a nice way to bring family members together that have different hobbies!

I got a pair of pink con's so really, real men where pink shoes

Dude you need to get out of the house more.

[PressureCooker2600]

I wonder if my fiancee could do something like that. She hand sews and makes all kinds of dolls and various things. I had pictures of some of her stuff up in another thread.
