In early December, UK craft mag Simply Knitting announced that it’d be publishing a pattern to create your own custom version of LittleBigPlanet‘s Sackboy, which was amazing, but also disappointing in that a.) importing a single issue of a magazine sounded like a ridiculous trial (see also: Vice’s LittleBig issue, and I’d still love to find a kind UK soul to help me get my grubby mitts on that [hint]), b.) as much a modern man as I might try to be, going to any length to eagerly snatch up a knitting magazine might’ve been just the tiniest bit shameful.

So I’m happy to report that UK tabloid the Sun has partnered with the mag to offer the pattern as a free download (direct PDF link), an unusual pairing, given the Sun’s traditional beat covering, as Wonderland’s Alice Taylor puts it, “topless ladies, celeb gossip, salacious murder details, assorted other painful deaths, surgery gone wrong, football transfers and astrology predictions.”
