Are they kidding me? Does anybody think this "vest" is nice? I think it tops (no pun intented) anything in my "Just Because You Can Knit It" post of a few months back.
I know that the more patterns a yarn company can put out there, the more yarn they will sell, the more money they'll make, the more yarns they can produce. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I get it. I'm in marketing.
But this thing? What were they thinking?
Dear Berrocco: I've got a few cats with a couple hairballs they'd like to add to this "design." But I don't think anyone would notice...

Yep. That's raising the bar on ugly.
I actually have made three of these and am rotating them through my wardrobe. Gypsy is the new preppy...
Just kidding!
Hell, I can't even knit anything beyond your basic scarf and hat combo. And when I move on to bigger and better things, they certainly won't be as butt ugly as that is!
Hidious!!!! yuck yuck yuck!!!
but yet, so colorful!
Arg, that thing is freakishly awful! Words cannot express my horror.
Is anyone surprised that that pattern is "FREE"?! ;)
Blecch. Your razor poncho wasn't even that ugly. And the colors were much better. Yuck-a-doo.
I'm totally making that! It'g going to be my next project!
heh
Actually, I love Berocco yarns, I do. But I'm not a vest girl, not at all. Not even if the vest is that purty :)
Some Grandma somewhere will be making that for some poor grandchild. I sure hope it isn't my grandma making it for me..eeek!
yes, that is hideous. but, at the risk of offending, and, really, i don't mean to.....not all "old ladies" and "grandmas" have terrible taste. it's just not right to say "it looks like something an old lady would make/wear" as a put-down for a pattern. after all, some of us old ladies rock! i'm just sayin'....
I actually like it but minus the crochet bunting (what else should I call it?). And in a solid color. So I do like it very much with a few tweaks.....but I loved to layer over tees in the fall.
That is truly the most atrocious thing I have ever seen.
My eyes hurt.
