Imma *Knit* That Dude A Belted Sweater
Vintage yarn company. Actually pretty sharp given how awful some of the vintage patterns I’ve seen are. Though many of these could be used for fanatasy costumes. That’s Gandalf the Orange on the lower right, right?
A little known off shoot in his younger days. I don’t think he stayed there long. What a shame, he looks FABULOUS.
Some of those look like they should be costumes from The Merchant of Venice..
Gilderoy!
His hair is amazing~*
OMG what year is this from??? Were the ’70s really that hideous, or was this just an artsy-fartsy fantasy?
NO take it from me, it was no fantasy, the 70′s was an ugly puke colored nightmare! These photos are just the tip of the iceberg. *gags*
I actually kinda like the yellow one in the center… but the rest… GAAAAAYYYY!!! Even in the 70s these would have been sneered at.
Add green shorts and booties and you can TOTALLY be Batman’s sidekick. …Oh, wait, these guys are way too old for that role.
Top left hand corner – a pimp? Top center – one of sir Robin’s Minstrels, soon to be eaten. Bottom center – Luke Skywalker?! Bottom right hand corner – Farmer Giles of Ham.
The blue one is just asking to be in a historic-fantasy video game (like Zelda) and the yellowish one on the bottom is begging for a futuristic sci-fi movie role.
The guy looks like Dirk Benedict (well, in the picture on the lower left)! If one of these was in all hunter green then “Robin Hood”…or a brighter green… “Peter Pan”… with appropriate tights of course!
Ah, vintage yarn company patterns – meant to sell yarn, not reality. Were such projects ever finished, let alone worn by the recipient? Not in my personal experience of growing up in a retirement community.
But that’s not the point. These are grandma’s equivalent of those old watercolor rocket illustrations: What the Future Will Look Like from the vantage of an increasingly incomprehensible present, capturing forever a vision of Future Past.
I like the way the professional model is one gnat’s eyelash away from helpless laughter.
Hey, this could be the next hip thing. So awful that it becomes cool. By next Christmas Hot Topic will be filled with knitted belted sweaters.
This should definitely be the next male fashion statement.
Anything’s better then those blasted droopy pants!
Didn’t Huggy Bear wear that hat in the top left?
Where are the pockets? You can’t just Bundy your hands under the belt!
OMG I used to have that pattern when the style was for WOMEN!!
Not even ‘Blue Steel’ can redeem these outfits!
i’m just speechless
Extras from ‘Starsky & Hutch’.
Actually, if you made these in decent colors they wouldn’t be too bad.
i’d wear the last one. probably in a different color, though.
kind of a *specific* fetish, don’t you think?
“wouldn’t be too bad”? Have you all gone blind?? He looks like he raided his grandmothers closet and had a transexual photo shoot!!! *facepalm*
I would totally jump the bones of any guy I saw wearing one. Dynomite!
LOL
These (along with the hair) are SO Logan’s Run!!!
OMG, next they will be bringing those hideous daisy-splattered fabrics!
These are so funny, I can’t stop laughing long enough to say anything snarky. I do think anyone saying one or the other of these ‘aren’t bad’ are seriously deranged though lol.
Has anyone else noticed that the guy in the bottom middle picture looks like Prince Charming from the Shrek movies..? lolz
That’s what I thought!!!!
Ever ran across something that made you fear “the Gay” leaping off on you????
If i had to wear one of them i would kick my own ass
roflmaopimp
And you’d deserve it!
When I was a kid we had furniture in these colors. I was permanently scarred.
When I was a young adult, I *chose* furniture and rugs of these colors. I’m not proud, but I lived to tell about it. In my defense, there weren’t many choices when a person went furniture and rug shopping. Everything was “earth tones” and other items had to be coordinated. The first house I bought had wall-to-wall *shag* carpeting in browns, golds, and “terra cotta”.
LooK! It’s Peter and The Lost Boys
from NeverLand.
The guy in this photo totally reminds me of Kelso off of That ’70s Show.
