Norberta from Knitty, made for a friend at work who will be out for several weeks recuperating from surgery. She is a fellow WoW geek, and I thought a fearsome dragon/dinosaur beastie would be fitting. :)
Yes, that's Minas Tirith that Norberta is attacking.
Norberta was made with TLC Cotton Plus, done wildly off-gauge on size 6 needles. The pieces all matched up with each other just fine. I got a slightly stumpier head than the "real" one has, but that was the only real difference that I saw.

So cute! I like TLC cotton for stuffies too.
That is adorable!! Knitting stuffed toys is always so fun.
Too cute! I love the colors you picked.
It reminds me of Puff the Magic Dragon:)
Ohh! so it wasn't a bra?! :) hehe
I love her!
Is a Norberta a name play off the baby dragon in Harry Potter named "Norbert"?
She's way cute. I want to make one!
Whoa Minas Tirith! What a great dinosaur/dragon. Rock!
