Star Wars BB-9e Hat - Free Crochet Pattern

This new droid of the dark side is perfect for winter.

I was very excited to see a new droid for the First Order. He seems to be the evil counterpart to BB-8. The possibilities were endless.

Star Wars got me interested in this droid right away.. Of course I always check out the new toys for each movie. Sure enough, BB-9e was hitting the shelves before the movie came out.

I started working on BB-9e immediately. I was so inspired by this dark little droid. After K2SO in Rogue One, I was sure BB-9e would be great.

Star Wars has put such personality in their main character droids that they become part of the cast. The last thing I want BB-9e to be, is just another droid that just wanders across the scene.

Star Wars built me up, just to let me down. Once I saw the movie, BB-9e got a short scene with BB-8 and that was about it. No backstory, no personality, nothing!

Ugh. Yet another reason The Last Jedi left me wanting more.

But, How could I ever stay mad at Star Wars? So, I’m still holding my final judgement on Episode VIII until the final installment. Perhaps there will be more for BB-9e?

Let's all hope that J.J. Abrams can bring this saga to a satisfying and exciting close. I hope he can tie up these loose ends and mend my broken heart.

What do you hope to see in the next Star Wars? Let me know in the comments.
