Potholders for Pulchritude!

Posted on by

In keeping with today’s tatas theme, here are the hottest potholders around! I bet you can’t wait to get your hands on these babies!

Potholders for Pulchritude

It looks like that oven is cold!

These particular knit tits were knitted out of 100% cotton and apparently modeled after Lindsay Lohan’s, if one is to judge from the colour scheme. Pattern here. All to benefit Breast Cancer Awareness.

As women, most of us are aware that we need to examine our breasts regularly. What better way to remind ourselves more often to do that than to use a dishcloth that blatantly screams, “Feel the Ta-tas!“

Hard to argue with that. Hey, you might even get some kitchen volunteers.

Maybe I should knit some…

Have you seen the cinematic triumph which is Shine? It is the movie that launched Geoffrey Rush on an unsuspecting public. It takes a few of those to make up for chewing scenery in a pirate’s outfit, that’s for sure.

Sockthulhu

– his diet consists mostly of squirrels, chunky bars, and the souls of the damned

From Kadath in the Cold Waste (via Ecto) comes Sockthulhu! Loathesomely tattooed over his squamous hide with the polychromatic, crawling patterns of Nordic knitwear, Sockthulhu is invulnerable to the brutal winter conditions, utterly unafraid of Ithaqua the Windwalker, and completely machine-washable!

Knitting for psychos

These are so inspiring I may just take up needles again. After all, they’re long, pointy, dangerous items that you can take virtually anywhere; just the kind of thing I normally carry anyway. Timethief passed along the Knitting for Psychos page, which makes me wonder how she spends her leisure hours…is she the twisted genius that made the conjoined twins teddy bear(s)?

a touching musical tribute to Chuck Berry

from the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre, and at their strong hint in the comments on their Bohemian Rhapsody video. A classic tune, once again slightly reinterpreted for the Twenty-First Century. What do you think? Will it get them prison time?
