Technically, yes, but an Adipose actually made of fat would go gloopy after a while.

I can’t tell you the uproar this is causing. Thankfully, I have all the patterns.

Excellent…

Surely if it was knitted it’d be a Lanolin?

Of course, the BBC doesn’t have the rights to ‘Lanolins’ (if anyone does it’s me and I forswear them here and now), so anyone who happened to have a knitting pattern to make a Lanolin would be quite free to post it if they so choose.

And did I mention my idea for a squid-faced alien race - like Cthulhu but without wings - called the Thloo. If anyone wants to run up a Thloo knitting pattern too I’m most happy for them to do so. They’re about human sized, bipedal, two arms, bald, and always carry a supply of a special trace element they can’t live without with them - connected to their ‘mouths’ by a long tube.

Well, all the ones I wanted to knit anyhow

which is mostly the knitted dalek. And the scarves from the Tom Baker era.

Don’t worry, the [whisperwhisper] will probably still have them, so give it a couple of months and you can grab them then.

[Edit: Er, probably best not to let the Beeb know this ahead of time!]

actually, very few are on there.

The one I’m thinking of has a six month delay, so it won’t have put them up yet.

i want some knitted Dr Who things, I will trade you something if you make me some.  PLEASE!!!  *Puppy dog eyes*

I gave my wife the pattern for the Dalek and requested an army of them, but I don’t have a single one. 

Alright, but you are getting your package late then

I’d take the scarf, I like scarves, but my inner nerd really want the new Indy fedora that Think Geek is selling.  The only hat I would wear is a fedora, but I suspect I’d look very silly in one.

I’d try to knit the characters, but since it took me two shots to knit a plain black scarf, I don’t see that that’s going to be possible.
