Recycling Sam roles into Tolkien characters part 57896799:
Today's character isn't part of the Legendarium but sort of a satire of The Hobbit. Free version of Ægidius Agricola de Hammo, who instead of slaying a dragon founded a kingdom with him. 🐲

My Farmer Giles of Ham inspired sweater (from 1989) - inspired by Pauline Baynes illustrations although I'm now confident to use mine! #farmergilesofham #tolkien #paulinebaynes #tolkiensweater #tolkiensweaterknitting
Here's mine for The Tolkien Society ... meaning to get round to doing more - this is inspired by Pauline Baynes artwork for Farmer Giles of Ham by JRRTolkien.
