I love Ms. Pacman, because she was the first pixelated female to grace our computer screens, proving early on that gaming isn't just for the boys. So if you're a girl gamer, a Ms Pacman cuff is a great way to wear your geeky credentials on your, um, wrist. Pictured above, this cuff is available to buy from InHope on Etsy.
Another great thing about Ms Pacman is that having being a product of the 80s, she's dead simple to draw, stitch and craft into as many lovable objects as you like. The cross-stitch on the left was made as a valentine's present, which caused at least one blogger to confess that he would 'marry on the spot' any woman who gave him such a gift. If you'd like a route directly into a particular geek's heart, there's even a book full of Pac Man cross-stitch patterns, which you can purchase here. So get out the needles, and it could be love at first bite...
