Mortimer the Mole

Say hello to Mortimer the mole. Mortimer can be very cheeky, he says that he would like to help, but everything always ends up much messier than when it began. Mortimer is a great friend though and he’ll always be there to listen to you.

Mortimer is a little mole wearing a removable cable sweater (fastened with a button), shorts and shoes. Instructions for his little wire glasses are also included in the pattern. Mortimer can stand up and sit down and so he is very easy to pose.
