” . . .’MUNDUNGUS FLETCHER, I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!’

“There was a loud crack and a strong smell of mingled drink and stale tobacco filled the air as a squat, unshaven man in a tattered overcoat materialized right in front of them. He hand short bandy legs, long straggly ginger hair, and bloodshot baggy eyes that gave him the doleful look of a basset hound . . .

“”S’up, Figgy?’ he said, staring from Mrs. Figg to Harry and Dudley. ‘What ‘appened to staying undercover?’

“‘I’ll give you undercover!’ cried Mrs. Figg. ‘Dementors, you useless, skiving sneak thief!'”

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Okay. I’m not going to lie. This Mundungus Fletcher block—the eleventh in the Order of the Phoenix C2C Crochet Afghan looks kind of like the Gerber baby. Big and bald-headed. In the Harry Potter books, Mundungus Fletcher (or Dung as he’s affectionately called by Fred and George Weasley) has “long, straggly ginger hair”; however, he’s portrayed differently in the movies. Andy Linden was chosen for the role and left with his bald pate. I tried adding wrinkles to his face and it just looked ridiculous. I finally accepted that this block would just be a lot of skin due to the limitations of C2C design. If you come up with something you like better, be sure to share it with me!

Known as a sneak thief, and known to deal in stolen goods and controlled substances, Mundungus Fletcher is a useful sort of person to have around. He does not have a very well-developed moral code, but he has contacts in the wizarding underworld which come in handy from time-to-time. His best quality is his fierce loyalty to Dumbledore.

Harry Potter first meets Mundungus Fletcher when he is supposed to be guarding Harry in Privet Drive. Instead, he snuck off to see about stolen cauldrons and Arabella Figg gives him a tongue-lashing when he returns. Mundungus also proves unreliable when he disapparates while disguised as Harry’s twin during Harry’s transfer from Privet Drive to Grimmauld Place. Mundungus redeems himself (very slightly) when he provides a useful clue as to the whereabouts of Slytherin’s locket.
