See Penguins Wearing Tiny “Penguin Books” Sweaters, Knitted by the Oldest Man in Australia

How does 109-year-old Alfred “Alfie” Date keep him­self busy? Appar­ent­ly by knit­ting sweaters for endan­gered pen­guins. The old­est man in Aus­tralia, Alfie began knit­ting these lit­tle sweaters at the request of The Pen­guin Foun­da­tion in 2013, after hun­dreds of Lit­tle Pen­guins were injured by a big oil spill. He makes the sweaters in dif­fer­ent styles. But you can’t beat a pen­guin wear­ing a Pen­guin Books logo. We dare you to try.
