Husband Posts Pictures Of 'Crocheted Dolls' Made By His Wife And Creepy Is The First Word That Will Come To Your Mind
Remember the crocheted doll version of the Bernie Sanders meme? It was all over social media and the woman from Texas who knitted it, ended up raising $40,000 (Rs 29,03,642) for charity.
Remember the crocheted doll version of the Bernie Sanders meme? It was all over social media and the woman from Texas who knitted it, ended up raising $40,000 (Rs 29,03,642) for charity.
"On Inauguration Day, when I saw that that meme was trending, I said, 'Oh, I'm going to go get that pattern, I'm going to modify it real quick to make it look like his inauguration outfit,'" Tobey King, 46, told Reuters. She added, "I made that in about seven hours."
Since clearly this became a trend, a Twitter user named Rowan Battley took to the microblogging website to share 'lovely' pictures of crocheted dolls his wife had apparently knitted.
In his tweet, Battley wrote, 'My wife Lola will be selling her crocheted dolls in the precinct this Saturday, all proceeds to the drop-in-centre.'
He added, 'For God's sake buy one, she's made 600 of the bloody things. They're all over the house. Every time I open the airing cupboard it's like being attacked by Chucky.'
And if we have to be the judge of the dolls, we definitely agree with Mr Battley that it does feel like being attacked by Chucky.
Here, have a look at them yourself!

To which, Mr Battley responded,
I don't have to imagine, Simon. I'm surrounded by the woollen bastards day and night. I opened the fridge last night and one was sitting in the salad-crisper.

I love everything about this Tweet. The charity, the spousal support, the cheerful acceptance that these things are terrifying craft-abominations. You might want to buy her a candle making book for Valentine¡¯s Day. Or get her a still. Definitely encourage a new hobby ??

If we all donate money to the drop in centre, without taking a doll, would she unpick them and turn them into blankets please?
