Sweater-Shorts

I question the wisdom of knitting (or crocheting) a skirt to match a top.   It really doesn't seem like the best of ideas, but I suppose it's possible to do it well.  (Or at least not to do it so badly that you render yourself ridiculous.)

Knitted shorts to match a top, on the other hand. . .

And there's that hood / hat /thingamabob that goes with it, too.  And all of it in orange. 

We can only pray that this sort of thing never comes back into fashion.
(Was it ever in fashion at all?   One has to wonder. . .)
