Too much skin missing to stitch that area together. The knee has to be able to bend and if you stitch that together the stitches will just rip out the first time he bends his knee. They are letting it heal in by "secondary intention" which just means the skin will slowly grow in from the sides. Should leave a lovely scar though...good thing you aren't a knee model.
