    I joked with my 7 year old tonight who loves Harry Hill. I said look auntie may gave me knitting needles i am going to knit a knitted character like they have on Harry Hill, his face lit up and he replied in and excited voice "REALLY"

    I was only kidding but I know he is going to keep asking me. I never learn.

    I had a brother knitting machine years ago but it was an ugly looking thing and took up so much room but it did rattle up garments quick, sometimes I would go so fast i nearly took off lol I may have exagerated there to make it sound faster ha ha

    Know a lady that knits these toys and can get you a copy of the pattern if you want.

    This technique was called oddpin knitting.
