Fizzgig...
Since I was a child I have loved Jim Henson films & TV shows, especially the Labyrinth & the Dark Crystal. Last week 'the fella' & I went to London to see one of our all-time favourite musicians, Devin Townsend. Devin is also a massive fan of The Dark Crystal so I thought he would appreciate my attempts to recreate Fizzgig (youtube link).
Mini-Fizzgig was lovingly crafted using some scraps of hideous novelty yarn, a piece of red felt fabric & safety eyes & nose, in a completely made up pattern.
Mini-Fizzgig was chucked up onstage during the gig, successfully. I spoke to Devin after the gig; I believed he used the word 'Awesome'.
I don't know what dark crystal is but OMG I love him!
ReplyDeleteOh he's so cute!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job but dear God, what horrendous yarn! This was sold to knit with?! Sounds like you'd a mighty time :)
ReplyDeleteHorrendous yarn that actually works for weird little mini puppets!
ReplyDeleteJulie; it's a Jim Henson film & I highly recommend it! lots of cute & creepy creatures.
