There are some things you want to emphasize, and some things you don’t

Last year I came upon this post of a beautiful sweater and was struck by its tendency to accentuate a particular body part. My comment was: “I love how it screams: ‘LOOK AT MY BOOBS!’”

Well, now there are sweaters that specialize in the accentuation of other, less obvious areas of the female anatomy.

KnitPicks Mockneck Pullover

I am dubbing this “The Vagina Pullover.”

  1. When I saw a photo of this pattern, my first thought was, “I always wanted a sweater that would make my hips look huge.” (meant sarcastically, of course)

  3. Yah… you know those pants that Mounties wear? The ones that balloon at the thighs? That’s what this reminds me of. It just needs to find a woman who has thought “gee… I wish there were some way to make my thighs look bigger”.

  4. I really love the expression on the model’ Face. “Maybe if I let my hair hang over my eye and look the other way, I won’t be so easily recognizable so that nobody is gonna tease me about that big honking arrow . . “

  7. Um, I *knew* there was something wrong with that thing. Gah. It looks like they were knitting a superhero bodysuit and got bored before starting the legs.

  9. This looks like a vaginariffic knockoff of an Anthropologie pattern! I just saw it today at

    I don’t know what the original is actually called, but it seems kind of cheeky to call the KP pattern the “innovation” mockneck.
