This man, Australia’s oldest living human, has been knitting jumpers for injured penguins. As you do.
Alfred ‘Alfie’ Date of the NSW’s Central Coast, spoke to Nine News about how his hobby was formed.

Love the Penguin Books penguin. My daughter nearly died from squealing, they're so cute!
This is a lovely story, but just before anyone else starts knitting for the penguins, I too saw a story (last year) that these jumpers were knitted so I and some friends started knitting jumpers for them but it turned out that they were inundated with them, so I've now got some penguin jumpers sitting around with nowhere to go! I'm sure Alfie's jumpers will be made use of, but just double check before you start making them because I know last year they didn't want anymore.
