I suggested he wear mittens, but he insisted they would interfere with tossing. He mumbled something like “You don’t see quarterbacks wearing mittens!”
I think he’s actually wearing a speed skating costume. It’s just so tight you can’t tell. Still, if children can’t tell, they could be scarred!

Um, Lucia dear, did you put a sock on that poor man’s HAND?

Geez, at least give him a decent mitten.

And, um, other parts are appropriately clothed, right?

Hey, there is snow on the ground here in the Chicago suburbs and I try to economize by keeping the heat low. I can’t have a naked man knitting in my living room or back yard, now can I?

One thing the fuss makes me wonder: Did anyone knit their projects primarily to win the right to post the button at their blog? Well, if they did, they now have a decently clothed one!

I followed all the fuss at Franklin’s blog…and your response is hysterical!

And for the record, when the children at my house saw the gold medal our two year old said “He’s Naked!”. The five year old then replied…”No, he’s half naked. And chilly.”

So I am glad you helped the poor guy out. Now if I can only prevent further damage to my children…
