Rock Band Drum Cozies

Jane over at Game Girl Advance points out these neat drum cozies. Color-coded, and sound-dampening, they look like the perfect addition to any Rock Band set-up. I wonder why Harmonix hasn't starting selling some sort of official sound-dampeners for the drums?

Too bad they don't because these crocheted ones sold two days ago over on Etsy. Maybe FunkieFresh will make some more.

Get Your Very Own Crocheted Prinny/Witzbold

Kotakuite BrynnFlynn let us know that there's an eBay auction going on currently for a Disagea Prinny ... or is that a Witzbold?:

I was looking for something new and unique to crochet, and so I thought "Hey, why not make a little Prinny?" A few hours of mad crocheting and accidents later, I had a Prinny from the popular video game series Disgaea. Then I thought, "Hey, why not make it into a Witzbold?" Another hour of messing around with different yarns later, and I had a little replica of the infamous "Banhammer Wielder" from Kotaku.com, the most popular gaming website on the internet.

And there's even a crocheted ban hammer to go with it. Awwww. It can be yours for the current low low bid of $5.99, which is way, way cheaper than most of the crocheted curiosities we post.

Retro Gaming Crochet

My mother is a big time knitting and crochet freak, constantly trying to make me something that I would use out of yarn and sheer manual dexterity, to no avail. I could not imagine anything she could make that I would actually use, but now it becomes readily apparent that I just wasn't thinking hard enough. Or perhaps I should have let Jack Rabbit do the thinking for me. As you can see, she has some completely mad crochet skills:

Of course, I assume that a familiarity with video game systems beyond, "Michael, if I trip on this f***ing Atari wire one more time it's going into the trash with your brother's dirty magazines!" in order to do such exquisite work, so it is quite lucky that Jack Rabbit plans on taking custom orders in May for both the system and an old-school television with a classic Atari 2600 game knitted onto the screen. Hit the jump to see more. More »
