I KNIDDED YOU A SCARF

Just because you can do a thing does not mean you should do that thing.  Looks like a comfy outfit, doesn't it?

The caption reads, "SCARVED AND FEATHERED  Natural or synthetic--whatever the fabric, the more tactile, the better.  Alberta Ferretti goat hair coat, $4,800.  Marni onyx rubber skirt, $486; Marni, NYC. Giles tangerine oversize wool scarf. Wolford tights. Gina for Giles pheasant-feather stilettos. Fashion Editor: Grace Coddington."

What can one say?  Even the title implies punishment.  The model certainly looks like she's in pain.  That or gasping for air.

I'm sorry if this hurts your eyes.  Click to biggify if you can.

I am especially grateful that the caption-writer made a point of informing us that the scarf is oversized.  Whew.  If you look closely, you will see that there are even cables in the scarf-like object.  Oooh.  Fancy

This was making the rounds of the knitting net a while back, and I don't know who to credit for the LOL captions.  If you know, let me know, and I'll add it. kthnxbai.  Update:  the original came from Jezebel.com here.

OH. HAI. I NIDDED YOU A SCARF.

Now there's a fashion statement for you! One that says, "be afraid, be very afraid!"

How about those shoes?

[Sharon]

I'm thinking those shoes would complete my Halloween costume for work, but they must hurt her feet by the way she's holding her foot, so guess I'll just have to go with Crocs.

I would wear those!

I mean the tights of course. The rest of it, forget it.

Very useful for skiing. Not only will it keep you warm, but if you get lost you can spread it out so the search and rescue helicopters can find you.

It looks like a LOL cats style captioning. Very funny.

Well, at a guage of approximately 3" to the stitch, it's probably a quick knit--once you figure out how to hold size 50mm needles, that is.

Did she stomp turkeys with those heels? Yikes! Poor woman probably needed serious chiropracty to restore her spine after carrying that weight of wool...
