Gallery of people in heavy knit clothing

It's like I've programmed a robot to paint some art. But I've made an error in the program, and when I come back I find that the robot has painted something utterly different from what I was expecting, but something that is nevertheless beautiful in ways I never would have imagined.

That is some weird shit right there. Wool fetish, wow, I didn't know that existed. Personally I can't stand itchy wool against my skin.

I was delighted, however, to see the naked-man wool suit in the gallery that was featured in the previous awkward family photos gallery. It's a strange thing to see twice in one day!

When I first took up knitting a while back, my co-workers and I joked that I had a yarn addiction. I never would have guessed that some people actually have a yarn/knit fetish. I suspect the list of "fetishes I didn't know existed" is quite long. I can't quite get my mind around what would be arousing about heavy knit clothing, but whatever floats your boat.

Well I guess they're not hurting anyone else and they're consenting adults and everything but there's still a part of me that thinks they should be sent to prison.

Funnily enough, one of the featured pictures was also on awkwardfamilyphotos.com the other day.. It was a considerably more controversial shot (judging by their reactions):

It raised quite a little shitstorm.. Grimc, just for you: NSFW :)

There is some qualification and explanation at the bottom of the comment thread, but I dare you all to live the controversy and muddle on through 'til the end :)

Gossamer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossamer_(Looney_Tunes)) apparently has a dumpy, Kool-Aid red cousin.

These pictures are making me hot. I mean, like literally. I'm starting to sweat and get that itchy feeling just looking at all that wool.
