Fox Tail Ponchos, Purses or Wraps

A Bernat pattern book...all based on "a love affair with fur being timeless". Yup, that's what I said...timeless! Not sure how fur and fake fox tails made from yarn goes together. If you aren't sure about the cover design, I've included another just for good measure.

Funny how the second model looks rather petrified too...probably wishing the shoot was over so she could throw that wrap and purse in the corner and run for her life!

Thanks Erin for this submission...it's a good one!

  1. Remember the scene in Ghostbusters, where the woman's stole comes alive and attacks her?


    I would be afraid of that with this monstrocity.

  2. Oh my gawd. She looks like a filthy sea anemone. How could anything like this get through the multi-step process of being publushed? It had to be designed (by a lunatic,) submitted, accepted (by a blind person,) and published (by either a masochist or a horrible business person.)

    I think this can be summed up in one word: WHAT?!

  5. Make the designer wear this outside during hunting season---ANY season will do---and perhaps we may yet send a message out there to ALL designers: STOP THE INSANITY!!!

  8. *wow*
    you don't often see something that bad - unless you check into this site regularly;)

    I got a nomination for you - it's on my own website, may not work because it's _supposed_ to be ugly. It is definitely bright - check it out.

  11. EEKK! I've heard of notches on your belt but I'm with sweategrrl. Not one but two butt ugly capes covered with withered penises and a handbag to match. Hey and be easy about the Bjork comments Liz 'cuz I'm a fan. ;)

  15. may I humbly submit the following comparison? In Italy one can find numerous examples of a fertility figure with multiple rows of breasts (can't remember the goddess' name). My theory is that the designer is a rather sick Italian...with a breast fetish.

  16. Somebody notify PETA! It will serve them both right!

  17. LOL the fertility symblo comment cracked me up - I it was called Ephesus - it had about 20 pairs of tits. I love this blog. Whenever I need a really good belly laugh I know where to find it. Kepp your girls up, girls and keep smiling. ^^

  19. It looks like LaToya Jacksons weave has come to claim her soul...or a raging case of dingleberries

  20. Timeless??? Only if you forgot to change the calendar. Looks like something they would come up with for Clan of the Cave Bear.

  21. On the website they only show the top half of her because someone at Bernat realized that road kill isn't appealing.

  22. this design will make the perfect hate-gift for any mother-in-law :)

  23. They didn't mean "timeless" -- that was a typo. THe original copy read, "TASTELESS!"

  24. Hmm, well, i don't really know what all of those things hanging off of it are supposed to be. Is it supposed to be mink or something.

  25. Okay, call me crazy, but I don't think it's all that bad. I actually kinda like the one on the left.
