I gotta say these are kind of quirky and silly though aren’t they? If you’re adventurous I’m sure you’d have fun wearing one of these…the facial expressions are priceless especially the dude in the orange colored one.

because there's always one more crochet design that shouldn't be made!

Could it be they thought it would work for something else, but then found out their partner was, well a little shorter than most.

I think this is a classic case of “Crocheter Bias”…believing that just because you crocheted it…it’s worthy for sale or to keep in one piece

They need the appropriate matching hats, complete with animal ears of course.

I actually made one of these for my niece’s mouse costume for Halloween. But, then again, she’s 5.

Okay, I’m crazy but I need to make one like the bottom left picture. Anyone have a link to a pattern? A bonus pattern of crochet kitten ears would be totally boss as well! Thx!

My sister and her dorm mates at the University of Illinois in Urbana crocheted “snoot boots” in 1958 and sold them for Christmas presents / stocking stuffers. The item got mentioned in the Chicago Tribune and the ladies in the dormitory (dorms were segregated by sex then) couldn’t keep up with the demand. Orders came from all over the country and they sold over 2 thousand of them, for $5 each. Everything old is new again.
