It was a simpler time, wasn't it? We had seminars about them, looked at them in little hand held mirrors, discussed in depth their places in our lives and their significance to our gender identities.
Ah, the good old days.
Thankfully, that sort of thing seems to have died off for the most part ... at least I'd thought so until some friends of mine showed me a Youtube video the other night. Apparently the vajajay obsession is alive and well ... and creating Etsy masterpieces as we speak.
In the video an Australian artist ... an Aussie this time guys, all you Americans can relax ... sits and knits during her performance art displays. She sits there, happily clicking the needles, with a skein of wool shoved up her hoo-hah.
That does not sound comfortable at all! Or hygienic!
I suppose you have to admire her dedication to her art though. Neither wind nor hail nor sleet nor snow nor unfortunate menstrual schedules shall keep this craftivist (her expression, not mine) from making scarves that no one will ever dare to wear.
Yeah, I'm not even kidding.
But seriously, go check it out. Just be careful with the video, guys. It's not really safe for work ... as most vagina knitting videos tend to be.
Okay...it may be just me...and not the most popular opinion that will be expressed here...but...that is just gross and that woman is as crazy as TWO boxes of frogs. What's next...making candles out of ear wax?
ReplyDeleteI'd wear that scarf!
ReplyDeleteAdds a new meaning to knitting group.
ReplyDeleteI am left speechless. why is she so calm? what is she trying to prove?

ReplyDeleteWell, since I'm only an occasional visitor and not a permanent owner of one of the above yarn-storage devices, I cannot comment first-hand about the effectiveness of this particular knitting technique. I guess it does keep one's hands free, at least...
ReplyDeleteBut suffice to say, I have absolutely no desire to turn my tallywacker into a knitting needle, thank you very much.
(previous comment amended for spelling...)
Holy crap! This is so unbelievable! And weird! First off, how do you suppose she came up with this idea? And the whole menstrual thing? Yuk!
ReplyDeleteGood news is she's saving money on tampons. Bad news is that yarn is a poor substitute for a battery operated dildo.
ReplyDeleteI think she's been hanging upside down in the Southern hemisphere too long. (That IS how it works, right?) :)
ReplyDeleteS
Imagine how horrible it must be to be in her secret Santa group.
ReplyDeleteI'm no prude, but storing yarn in your vagina could lead to a major hangup.
ReplyDeleteTo make it more effective, she should be knitting a cat...ba dum bum!
ReplyDeleteOkay. I'm officially grossed out, and that's very rare for me.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I'm with Janie!!
ReplyDeleteEwww! I will probably have visions of this in my head tonight when I pick up my yarn and needles to work on a baby cape for my future grandson. Maybe I'll just sew something together.
ReplyDeleteYou used a phrase that made me think of my second big pet peeve with America (I hope it is not worldwide):
ReplyDeleteOr hygienic!
When I was a kid, I swam in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of New Jersey, and they would at times detect some nasty stuff in the water. Seat belts were a suggestion, bicycle helmets did not exist, we knew whatever we were doing could put someone's eye out-we just did not care.
Now our office buildings have hand sanitizer dispensers every ten feet, and every time a kid sneezes they're at the doctor. Helmets and seat belts are mandated by law and I'd be willing to bet if you let your kids play with something that could put someone's eye out, you'd be in violation of some statute.
So here's to you, vagina knitters! Keep your freak flags flying!

I don't get it. What point is she trying to make?
ReplyDeleteEh, that's nothing, you should see me whittle a totem pole with my anus. I can also do artisan pencils.
ReplyDeleteI have a twisted sense of humor but that isn't even worthy of a comment.
ReplyDeleteI would say I have no words but I do, however most of them are just variants of damn that's gross.
ReplyDeleteGross!
ReplyDeleteTo say that little lassie has more than a few bats loose in her belfry is an understatement, but heck the comments had me hysterical!
Now that is damn crazy! What kind of person says, I think I will shove yarn up my hoo-ha and start knitting. Weird for sure.
ReplyDeleteSo relieved, as I thought I missed the opportunity to talk vagina! I think the knit vajays I saw on etsy were more acceptable than the knitting vajays!!! Oh my gosh!
ReplyDeleteThat REALLY makes a statement about... um...
ReplyDeleteHaircuts?
I know what I'm getting my mom for Christmas !!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
