Adam Ant


I've been wanting to knit Adam Ant ever since seeing the original Prince Charming outfit in the V and A last year - and here he is! 12 inches tall and stuffed full of new romantic naughty intentions (otherwise known as polyester stuffing).

If you'd like to give Mr Ant a home, he's currently strutting around my Etsy shop, doing that Prince Charming dance. You know, that one.

    1. You've captured him so well!

      (And I just wanted to say: knitting, cross stitch, Alan Rickman, Adam Ant, Siamese cats... our paths were destined to cross!)

    2. Seriously? How brilliant! Maybe I need to combine all of those things into one completely awesome project (Mr Ant and Mr Rickman riding a giant siamese cat?)
