You too can knit your own Sackboy

Or, as CVG astutely points out, you can con someone else into knitting a Sackboy for you (We'd suggest Saria the Cat, she's a knitting fiend). All the details for making your own denizen of LittleBigPlanet are in the latest Simply Knitting magazine, but we're guessing it's already on your coffee table, right? By the way, the instructions were created by designer Alan Dart, which the magazine describes as "the Grand Theft Auto of knitting." Adorable.

Pick up the issue for the Sackboy designs, but stay for all the beloved Simply Knitting monthly features like stories of mothers and daughters knitting together in "The Tie that Binds," Roger Estwhile's "Knitting Knews", or Sue Coulty's zany tales of adventures in motherhood, "All In Knots." We hope at least one of those is real.
