Got Snake?

snake slithering
Designer A, “Look at the summer top I designed!” Designer B, “Hmmm… It’s, well, you know, nice.”

Designer A, “What’s wrong with nice?” Designer B, “Nothing. Nothing is wrong with nice.”

Designer A frowns. Walks around muttering… Suddenly, she spots a fuzzy knit snake and drapes it across the neckline. “There! Now it’s not nice!”


From Fashion Knitting #14, 1984

  1. It looks like it has eyes at the bottom. PLEASE, PLEASE tell me that there are no eyes.

  2. The eyes are even more apparent in the magazine. . .

  3. I’ve encountered things that looked like that in the back of my refrigerator!

  5. The sweater is full-on 80’s awful … but I like the snake. (Of course, I liked MagKnits’ sea-anemone “Chance” armwarmers too.) :-D
