Quack Quack

These crochet slippers are great... if you want your feet to look like those of a cartoon duck.

Yee-Haw, Y'all

The image quality is a little lacking, but still... crocheted boots!


 Ok, confess:  How many of you are already planning out how to make yourself a pair of these?

Sensible Shoes

Here we have a fine example of the Soleless (though some might argue that it should be "Soulless") Doily Thong Sandal:

Obviously they're meant to be worn at the beach...
...Which I suppose is more responsible than suggesting that someone wear them to work...

...But think about it: 
If you wear these to the beach, aren't you just asking for a bizarre tanline?

No, I'm sorry.  I cannot condone their use, beachside or anywhere else.
(They don't look very comfortable, anyway.)

Pirouette

Sure, they may call them "slippers"...

...but anyone can see that these magnificent powder blue and white concoctions are knitted ballet boots (with tassels).

The only downside-- slippers aren't really meant to be worn out and about, and you'll really want to show these beauties off.  Oh well, nothing's perfect.

What the. . .?

Yes, it's back-- the dreaded "What the. . . ?" category, reserved for only the most bizarre and/or heinous acts of knit and crochet (and possibly occasionally other yarn-related craftiness).  You never know when it will strike! 

Today, I offer up for your amusement befuddlement horror. . . CROCHET MULES:


Now, the crochet mules are embarrassing enough on their own. . .  (What is with those ballet-style laces on the middle pair?) 

. . . And the exceedingly bare (and in one case, hairy) legs take it to a whole 'nother level of ohmygosh. 

But then (if you're like me) you take a closer look at the. . . um, positioning (if you will) of the three pairs of legs. . . combined with their bareness. . . and you either shudder or burst into snorts of laugher.  Or both, either simultaneously or in rapid succession. 

Yes, you might have gone your entire life without ever picturing three people doing scandalous things while wearing (possibly nothing but) crochet mules, but thanks to me, that crisis has been averted. 

You are welcome.
