The Most Amazing Things Anyone Has Ever Knitted (Or Crocheted)

Knitting and crocheting are age-old crafts associated with quiet domesticity. Sweaters, hats, baby booties, and blankets can all be made from this hobby. Or, you can take a cue from these yarn enthusiasts and create these bizarre, brilliant, and all-around amazing articles of clothing and…whatever the rest of them are.

The list here features projects that are both knit and crocheted–we here at ViralNova know that to mix the two up is to invite the wrath of the crafters, and so we respectfully include both knitting and crocheting on the list. Just don’t ask us to tell them apart.


This…garment

But sir, why ever would you want to hide your face when you have such a stylish outfit?


Giant knitting

This knitting project of epic proportions required huge rolls of wool batting and PVC pipes to complete.


Tiny knitting

And really practical, too.


Tree sweater

Trees need to stay warm, too. Although based on the leaves, it looks like winter’s at an end.


Anatomical model

Who says biology can’t be cuddly?


Taking a cue from Christo, these yarn panels swoop through a park.


Phone booth cozy

It’s a statement, see, about modern technology.


Showing the world how serious you are about your hobby

Dedication, thy name is this guy.


Bridge cozy

Bridges need to keep warm, too. It’s science or something


Speaking of science

If you sleep on this blanket, you’ll learn science through osmosis (anybody? anybody?)


This thing

Sure, why not.


The ugliest sweater

Be the life of the holiday party everywhere. Whichever holiday, this has enough ugly to last all year.
