First off, a question.
When seeing that post title did you:
a) click tentatively, hand shielding your eyes, worried about what evil that Krazy Kristie might be exposing you to
-OR-
b) enter with zeal, eager to see The Nasties?
Leave a comment, I'd really like to know ;)
Anyways, I am the lucky daughter of a most excellent mom. A mom who stayed home with us, read to us, gave us plenty of hugs, taxied us around to hockey/ringette/gymnastics/girl guides/student council/baseball/volleyball/basketball.....you get the picture. But...well, she got me as a daughter, which certainly has its perks, but definitely keeps the woman on her toes ;)
Enter- Mother's Day. A few little presents for her, but I thought a handmade gift was also in order. Mom being of a practical sort, I thought, "perhaps something useful!"
I decided to knit her up a dishcloth. But not just any dishcloth ;)
The pattern is by Nadine, and is advertised as meant for "cleaning up after life's little messes." I hope it will serve Mom well!!
That is too funny!
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious! Way to start my morning off with a good laugh! LOL
ReplyDeleteToo funny, that's the second time I've seen someone use this pattern, and I still get a laugh out of it.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I totally entered with zeal :) I love knitted washcloths, my MIL makes me a couple every Christmas and they are one of my favourite gifts.
ReplyDeletehahahahahahaaaaa! that is brilliant :-D
ReplyDeleteI almost tripped over my own feet and shoved a couple of little old ladies out of the way to get in here as fast as possible. I have no shame or boundaries at all .
ReplyDeleteI kind of figure something like this makes cleaner fun-er or at least less excruciating. I dont know if fun-er is an actual word - I suspect not.
Anyone who doesnt think this is hilarious needs a humour transplant..
Well, I actually saw the ..umm.. "offending" dishcloth before I saw the title & thought, "oh dear, I wonder what that's supposed to be?" Then I checked the title & was glad to see the warning, since it meant it was what I thought it was. And now I can't stop chuckling about it.
ReplyDeleteha ha ha that utterly made my day right there. Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThat is so great! I honestly entered with inquisitive zeal. That is so funny.
ReplyDeleteI threw caution to the wind, and clicked right away to see what you were up to:) I have to say I got quite a laugh! Your mom must have a wonderful sense of humor.
ReplyDeleteAnd now I may have to go check that pattern out. I could think of a few people to gift these to.
LOL! The post title totally made me want to click. :)
ReplyDeleteI thought,"how bad could it be?" so I clicked right away :0)
ReplyDeleteKristie!!!! I am so disappointed with you, how could you show such a thing?
ReplyDeleteI entered with zeal and was hoping for a lot worse! ;0)
Haha! That's hilarious. I clicked with zeal, figuring I'd see some cross-stitch patches or something. lolol
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I LOVE it! *L*
ReplyDeleteAnd I had absolutely no trouble clicking in at all.
I wish I'd gotten something useful like that for M's Day.
that is hysterical!!! i saw that title and totally clicked on eager to see what it was!
ReplyDeleteHA! Last year for Mother's Day I crocheted a penis for my mom...it was hilarious! I also corcheted a boob hat for my dad last year, too. Pretty cool...
ReplyDeleteOh, and I totally clicked curiously when I saw "X-rated." I figured it would be something hilarious.
OMG! That is hysterical! But the fact that you made it for your Mom on Mother's Day? Makes it EVEN BETTER. : ) She must rock.
ReplyDeleteFWIW, I use the Google Reader "Next" button, so I didn't have a choice, this just popped up into my screen. But if I had a choice, I would have entered gladly, LOL.
Oh My!
ReplyDeleteI admit, I was a curious and decided to eagerly click over when I saw this in my reader. ;)
I really wanted to see what you meant by X-Rated! I've been contemplating writing about some X-Rated stuff on my blog but didn't want to scare people off. I'm still kinda iffy about it. I just want some advice for the "bedroom department". Do you think I should write about it?? BTW, I love this! haha My mom would LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm like Lee - I had no choice in the matter. But that just means I didn't get to click on this post FIRST out of all the ones in my reader. Which I totally would have. Your mom must be hella cool to appreciate a penis dishcloth.
ReplyDeleteYou are just plain crazy...your blog always makes me laugh.
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I thought is that you must be making a version of Schnibbles Times Two's X-rated Quilt!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! I clicked over, wondering what I would stumble on, really. That is hilarious!!! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL Kristie!!! OK- I know it is really 2 eyes and a VERY long nose, right???? heheh
ReplyDeleteI can remember a crochet pattern for a "peter warmer" years ago, too.
I bet your mother got a laugh out of her gift, too! Sandy. :)
I must admit, I jumped into your blog right away and with great zeal!! And no, I'm not offended. I don't know if you read knitting blogs much, but knitters seem much less "up tight" and/or less offended by silly things, like a knitting a penis on a dishcloth. In fact, last night, I saw a blog discussing pattern for a "Willie Warmer"--I guess for men who spend time outdoors in winter. But it made me laugh and so I proceeded to look for a similar pattern in fabric, but couldn't find one. :( Due to arthritis, I can't knit any more, so my (grown) outdoorsy son will just have make do!!

PS: I hope my reply is not too racy!!
That is HILARIOUS! I admit--I saw the post title in my reader while I was at work today and waited until I got home to click. :) I was afraid of what my coworkers might walk in on!
ReplyDeleteBwahaha, love it!
ReplyDeleteI make sure no-one's looking over my shoulder and then click away..! :P It's craft related, it can't be *that* bad... riiiight?
Oh my!
ReplyDelete**Blushes**
You made me laugh out loud! I almost snorted my Diet Coke through my nose. I love it!
ReplyDeletethat is awesome! it makes me want to learn how to knit, really bad! and i have to be honest... i didn't read the title of the post, i was just scrolling down looking at pictures and what the... is that a penis??? then i started from the top and read the whole post! i want to meet your mom! she sounds like an awesome lady!
ReplyDeleteI clicked eagerly ... it would be the BEST bachelorette present. Every new wife needs some dish cloths!
ReplyDeletei did neither. i viewed it in a reader and when i read the title my inner eyebrow lifted. when i saw it i laughed aloud. well done and too funny!
ReplyDeleteHonesty is the best policy:
ReplyDeleteI was going through my reader and unsubscribe from blogs I feel like I have a harder time keeping up with--usually those where there's no real personal connection.
Anyway, I decided before I made my final decision I would scroll through, on last time to before making my cut. Then I saw the dick.
And I had to ask myself..."is that REALLY a knitted PENIS?? on a CRAFTING/SEWING/QUITING/KNITTING blog????? "Oh, why yes. That's a Big Dick towel for my MOM" Needless to say, I've kept you in my reader. Because knitting a dick for your mom pretty much makes you golden in my book! HAHAHAHA!!!
How did I miss this the first time around???HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is all too funny! XD
