This is "Professor Rusty" from Beautiful Bears, Saprotex Design Studio, in "Aran Fleck" Red Heart, one skein (which I stole from my mom's sweater leftovers) plus one arm's worth of a second skein. The vest is Chocolate Simply Soft, the tie is some oddment, and the watch, the lovely watch, I bought online from Dolls and Lace at Ruby Lane.
He is a birthday/Christmas present for my Sean Connery loving sister, who was very patient with how long it took me. Not to knit him, that went fast, or to stuff and sew him up. No, it was learning to make movable joints, and that darned vest, which still isn't right (look closely - no buttons, and it curls like - well, like stockinette in acrylic). But she'd been waiting long enough, so he was delivered Christmas eve.
