It looked like he was wearing a muppet on his head. Blue with orange fuzz sprouting from it.
Finally I got up the nerve to ask if I could take a picture of his hat. English is his second language so at first he was worried I wanted to take his hat.
As if!
Rumor has it the hat disappeared for a few days last week and he was very upset about it. I'm not sure how you go about losing a hat that looks like this one.
It would take some effort.
I actually kinda dig it. If the colors were blue and gold for my favorite football team I would wear it with pride!
ReplyDeleteIt was one of those so ugly it's cool type of things. If I could find yarn that would grow orange fuzz like that - I would probably make some. Or even different color combos - like lime green sprouting from red, yellow from pink.
DeleteI think maybe it got up and went into hiding on its own.
ReplyDeleteOr something! I actually kind of started to like it by the end of the day. It's just so damn ugly it's almost cute.
DeleteIt looks like it's oozing....
ReplyDeleteOr molting.
DeleteIt's something I would wear. Crazy looking without looking intentional. Even though, if I wore it it would be intentional.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually trying to find out what kind of yarn would result in that peculiar muppet look so I can make a couple like it for next winter.
DeleteMaybe it went into hiding to shed it's skin??? LOL! I actually kind of like it, but not sure I'd wear it. Unless maybe it was the colors of my son's football team.
ReplyDeleteI'll admit the hat is growing on me. I'd love to try to make one in a few different color combos.
DeleteThat hat looks like it could do with a good wash!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI think washing it would make more of the orange fuzzy stuff poke through.
DeleteI bet his girlfriend made it for him, so he's obliged to wear it. That could also explain why he was so upset about losing it. Hehe
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine gifting anyone with a hat that looks like that - unless it was a parting gift.
DeleteIt looks like a fungus, or an infectious disease under a microscope. I love it.
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, it's kind of growing on me too.
DeleteBWAHAHAHA! He thought you wanted to *take* his hat. We can't imagine that has been a problem he's encountered with that particular accessory. WOW! Jenn is right...it looks like a microscopic view of an infectious process. --The Dose Girls
ReplyDeleteIt's an odd yarn that was used to make it. I've never seen anything like it.
