Rune is a multi-talented crafter: she knits fan-related clothing, knits Rogue dolls, and builds countless characters out of paper (also known as ‘papercraft’). She’s a Rogues and Flash fan and has made many of them in various forms, as well as creations of other DC characters and other fandoms like Doctor Who.
You can see more of her papercraft and knitted works at her DeviantArt gallery, and her Ravelry knitting account is here (unfortunately it seems you need a Ravelry account of your own to view the site). And she’s taking commissions, which you can find out about here!
I asked her about how she makes these items, and she graciously gave an interview.

Crisis on Castoff Earth by Xum Yukinori, from this week’s The Line It Is Drawn feature at Comics Should Be Good. You may recall his Flash of Two Worlds homage from a previous installment featuring the Earth-1 and New 52 versions of Barry Allen.
This week’s topic: post-apocalyptic versions of comic book characters. rodtownsend suggested: “Wally West, Donna Troy, Stephanie Brown (and anyone similarly deNUded) hanging out at the end of the world.”
Click through to see a larger version of the image, plus some other great ones including: Optimus Prime, Road Warrior…Scott Pilgrim vs. the End of the World…Squirrel/Tank Girl and more.
