    OMG, I can't believe it. The thing about that is, you know the person who started marketing the product got the idea from one of the million knitting blogs out here -happens all the time.

    The limited has cowls for $40. I just laughed at the people who were buying them

    Well on an up note...the people that are purchasing these probably don't knit, but they do think that the knits are stylish.

    My knitting group meets at Caribou once a week, and we got a chuckle out of these too!

    In my defense, it was a gift from a caribou employee who was able to get it with her discount. Although, I would have bought it for myself if she hadn't. LMAO.

    Wow. After seeing a post about knitted cuckoo clocks at Anthropologie that retail for $400, I think I have now officially seen it all.
