Scaley man fish Old Gregg

[warheart.livejournal.com]

This is my epic Old Gregg doll complete with his own bottle of Bailey's. He's a character from The Mighty Boosh, a British comedy show that just got popular here in America recently. It is a birthday gift for a friend who just got heavily into British comedy, hooray! He stands a huge 21" tall and is made of worsted weight acrylic yarn, polyfill, plus a tiny bit of felt for his tie. I hope you enjoy!



"Did ya ever drink Bailey's out of a shoe?" p.s. he isn't actually crooked, he just looks that way because he can't stand up straight from drinking all that Bailey's


This is the back of his jacket, embroidered with "I'M OLD GREGG" - his favorite thing to say.


This is his hair detail. I used scraps of every green yarn I could find to make it look more like a seaweed mishmash.


Closeup of the Bailey's. As you can see I am not a master of embroidery lol. I think it gets the point across though.


and here he is with a cat for scale and hilarity

Thanks for looking!
