I found this while rocking my son to sleep and almost threw the poor kid down from excitement! The worm from Labyrinth!
First, best movie EVER!
Second, David Bowie’s codpiece seemed a bit prominent for a kids flick in retrospect but I digress.
Third, love this worm! Three minutes tops in the whole film and he leaves a lasting impression for nerds with yarn power to bring back the joy for us many years later.
This one I found on Craftster.org and is by far the best replica I’ve seen! Downfall? Not intended for play. It has painted details and small non-Stitched parts more suitable for adult fandom.
Want something more for the kiddies? How about this?
There are tons of patterns out there for this little guy and not all of them are cute. This one is the most awesomest! Lookit that lil face!
Either pattern is not for the faint of heart so if you’re the babe with the power (what power?) get to work on this! Like, now! Squee!!!!!
Lol – how cool!
So cool! I’ll need help to make one.
You can do it, I have faith 🙂 and I’ll help if I can! The pattern looks well written with lots of helpful pics, so you’ll probably be just fine.
Aww! How cute!

I always loved this little guy. The only other one more awesome was Slimey from Sesame Street.
I cried when my brother told me David Bowie was wearing a wig in this film. It broke my little pre-teen heart. And yes, I was mesmerised by those tight, shiny pants!
Haha! As was I! Totally feel in love with him in this movie. He never looked better!
Reblogged this on threeprettyposies and commented:
This is so fantastic! I am not particularly skilled at crocheting, but I am tempted to try to make up a knitted version of this little cutie for my larger pretty posie’s birthday.
omg amazing.
I know!!! I want one!
So cute, yes I remember the film, must watch it again sometime.
Indeed! I bought on blue ray awhile back and want to show my son but I think he’s too young. He might freak out.
Yes, it was a little spooky, when it came out but the characters were so cute.
I love this!
It is pretty darn awesome 😀
