I've been addicted to Portal ( [link] ) at the moment despite the fact it makes me motion sick! Its a first person shooter/puzzle game, highly addictive.

Anyone who has played Portal will understand the love and devotion of the companion cube, and the heartbreak that comes with it also, curse GLaDOS!

I missed mine so much so, that I had to make myself a little 4x4x4" plushie. Instead of using the traditional stuffing method (as everything I have made so far, barring the incident of the little foam beads (never, ever, ever again) has been stuffed with conventional stuffing) I used foam instead, its rigid and is better at keeping its shape, so rather than being a tubby supposed-to-be cube, its actually a cube.

I have plans to make a full sized one in the near future! I've already got the basic cube body, just need to work on scaling up the pattern, and working out a few glitches with it in the meantime.

It hasn't tried to stab me yet...

Original pattern by ~Engelmancer and myself, photography by ~thingomy

This item or similar can be made as part of a trade or commission (£25 + P&P)

P.S. The cake is a lie!

Edit: Thanks for the daily deviation guys! :wave:

Edit No.2: pattern is now available - its in the 'free patterns' section of my website - [link] and its featured in my comic too! [link]

Enjoy, and if you make your own, drop me a link, I like seeing what people do with my patterns

Thankyou.

A bit of applied maths: If you integrate a stitch with respect to wool, you get a row, integrate again, you get a pattern.
