Adipose
Update: For those that have asked both here and via email, I don’t have the local copy available right now (machine upgrade, yay!), but I will try.
Update 2: Word is that Mazz is going to be talking to the Beeb soon, so hopefully it will be posted again.
While the pattern has been taken down at the request of the BBC, I was still able to finish knitting my Adipose. I had saved a copy locally and there is also the google cache page I have linked to below.
This pattern combined many of my worst knitting enemies. Grafting, picking up stitches and embroidering faces. I suck at all three of them.
I’m not overly pleased with the way I knit it, but had I paid attention to the pattern more closely, I think it would have turned out a lot nicer. Still, not bad for a first go.
Pattern: MazzMatazz’s Adipose Pattern
Materials Used:
US7
Wool Ease Sportweight: Natural color

Thank you for providing the cache version. I just saw the episode last night a week late even for SciFi. I managed to grab the cache and cut and paste it. Thank you so much. I love me some Adipose babies!!

Hi - Looks as if the cached page has gone
any chance of a copy of the one you managed to save locally? My boy adores these little critters.

The BBC have been really mean about this - my wife had heard about the pattern, and promised toy adipose to our boys. As soon as we came to find the pattern properly, the BBC meanies had raised their heads.
The link you gave is to a page with no patterns. Could you email me a copy of your copy so that my wife can keep her promise to our boys?

This looks so adorable…unfortunately, the cached page no longer appears, only the fact that the pattern has been removed. Shame, really, as it’s been forever since I have knit and thought this would be a perfect way to get back into the swing of things!

WOW! That is really cute when it’s knitted up!
My little boy asked me to knit him an adipose but Mazz’s pattern had been removed before I could. If you find your copy I would be most grateful for a copy.
