This doll has been banging around my head for a few months and I finaly got to make him this week



Captain Jack is off on another adventure! This 12" doll is ready to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer his weasely black guts out. So if you have the courage and fortitude to follow orders and stay true in the face of danger and almost certain death then you have just one question to ask yourself. Can you sail under the command of a pirate, or can you not?

THanks guys Smiley  I can't wait for the movie!  I am going to the midnight premere.

Kelly Bear:  It is a combination of yarn and two different colors of embroidery floss.  I doubled the length, put a knot in the center big enough to keep it from sliding out and then wefted it into each hole left by the crochet.  It took several hours to do, but it looks great.

You know now that you've made him, you HAVE to take the Captain to the premiere, right?
