oh, my eyes.

it is no wonder crochet gets such a bad name. people with absolutely no taste design things that are supposed to be whimsical, but in reality, they are just horrifying.

i barely have words.

i mean, a cow print scarf could be fun.... maybe. but only for an adorable child. who loves cows. and it under the age of 8.

but i have to know.... udders?!?! why, oh, why?

just looking at this scarf makes me feel sort of dirty. like i am violating a cow's privacy or something.
they aren't even very realistic looking, but there is something about the intent that gives me the heebeegeebees.

this is what i get for not being able to maintain a normal sleep schedule--my eyes burned out from late night browsing.

from What Not to Crochet.

what the F***!?

Fry some bacon and eggs for a good country breakfast. Once the kitchen is cleaned up, crochet this whimsical farm-friendly decorator item.

yes, that really is the caption. oh, why why why..... why do people design this stuff? it sort of eats a little piece of my dignity whenever i see bad crochet. i'm surprised i have any left. what is even more baffling to me is the photo. some "art director" went to the trouble of setting up a country kitchen counter top, and then the pig's nose was cropped in the photo.

sigh...
