Australia's oldest man likes to knit mini sweaters for injured penguins

http://ift.tt/1FwNETC // Penguins

Australia's oldest man has spent a lot of his days knitting sweaters for little penguins.


Alfred 'Alfie' Date spoke to Nine News about how his inability to say 'no' to favours got him into making the miniature animal clothes


The jerseys were requested from Victoria's Phillip Island Penguin Foundation in 2013, to assist the survival of little penguins after an oil spill. Little penguins are a species of penguin only found in southern Australia and New Zealand, with a lone colony of 32,000 remaining on Phillip Island
