This ninja is made using a cork, which you cover with a crochet ‘skin’. There is a space for the face, which you draw in with a pen, and you sew on little throwing stars.

You will need:
Small amount of black yarn.
Grey yarn to embroider throwing stars.
A cork, approx 1.75” (4.5cm) long.
Black permanent marker pen (Sharpie).

Also available on Craftster.

You can also make Gnomes (http://lucyravenscar.blogspot.co.uk/2010/02/cork-and-croc…) and Knights (http://lucyravenscar.blogspot.co.uk/2010/02/cork-and-croc...) using the same technique.
