the pirate

pirate

Pistol in his left hand, pistol in his right,
And he held in his teeth a cutlass bright,
His beard was black, one leg was wood;
It was clear that the pirate meant no good.

Henry requested a crocheted pirate and dragon for his birthday presents. The dragon isn't done yet, but here's the pirate. He's 5" tall, crocheted without a pattern. Based on Henry's favorite poem, The Tale of Custard the Dragon by Ogden Nash
