... is finally finished! After a long search I found the joints and snapped him together so he has moveable arms and legs. I have to confess there was some (ok lots of) swearing involved at certain points, they were much trickier than I thought to put in, trying to snap them together through two layers of knitting.
This means that he can sit down when he gets a bit tired. He has very odd little bowed legs, and his top looks like it has shrunk in the wash, but does have a certain rakish charm.
The back view with his tail poking through a hole in the pants.
He is from a pattern in this women's weekly craft book - I recommend it if you can find it, as it has a lot of nice things, even though the knitting patterns assume a fair amount of competence, and took a bit of figuring out.

I agree - he's sooo cute! well done on the joints too :)
It is very CUTE!
Perhaps the shirt didn't get small but his belly just got bigger.
Love his nautical outfit. I must say that the belly showing and his bowed legs all give him such great character! Wonderful work!!
