Do you remember last month's story? The one about Brit mag Simply Knitting having a feature article on how to knit a Sackboy? Surely you do, because we just linked to it. Anyway, back then you had to buy the mag to get the instructions, but now, all you have to do is click right here.
It's all thanks to The Sun, who has teamed up with Simply Knitting to bring this free PDF version of the spread for the enjoyment of everyone. Now that the issue has probably been taken off the newsstands, there's no problem with letting the internet go wild and have their fun. Go at it and make some Sackpeople!
[Thanks Sarah S.!]

The key to getting the likeness is taking a little extra time to get sackboy's mouth open. This tutorial is great for the body, though. MM's is still the best,

Awesome, Thanks! I've been going into Borders each week waiting to pay $10.99 for the January issue, but they hadn't yet imported it. Maybe I'll buy a PSN game with the money instead.
