Little Big Planet knitted Sackboy
This was linked-to in a comment in the previous post, but in case babies don't interest you - and because it's so bloody AWESOME - here he is in his full glory: a hand-knitted Sackboy, from Little Big Planet.
One of the game's designer's mum knitted him. This is a one-and-only, pitifully.
Here he is in his dragon outfit, too. Wah!
Wish that game would hurry up.
I really ought to actually answer some emails now in this rare 5 mins of peace. Testament to the cuteness of these characters that I posted this before actually getting to important things ;-)
(Thanks for pointing this out, Friendly Fiend!)
Oh my god, cuteness overload. Want!

I can't imagine LBP won't do a full line of plushies. Those characters are a goldmine.

I don't think there is a pattern for him! One of the artist's mothers made that little guy. Clever lady!
