    Apparently Bill Watterson created Spaceman Spiff before Calvin & Hobbes appeared. As much as Watterson loved Spiff, he couldn't come up with enough material to create a series... so imagine his delight when Calvin decided to adopt Spiff as one of his alter-egos...

    Apparently Captain Napalm's super-power is not seeing in the dark...

    I love Calvin and Hobbes and I really love this thread. When I was a kid, C&H was the only comic that resonated with me.

    Here's a Hobbes doll I made for a friend of a friend a while back.

    Thanks! It's not my pattern. I followed a pattern I found on Ravelry. I've made four so far, for friends of mine and family. I love the pattern.

    Go for it! The people I've given the dolls to all say they love them. :)

    I was thinking I would talk nicely to one of my sisters rather than trying myself. The last time I tried anything even close to crochet, it was mending nets with my father... and that was more than 30 years ago!

    The pattern is, mostly, easy. The only difficult part would be the tapestry crochet in the head and the belly band. I guess the ears would come in a close third as hard due to the color of the yarn and the tightness of the stitches. Everything else is a breeze. I hope this helps. :)

    Easy for you might not equate to easy for me... I think I'll bribe one of my crocheting sisters..
