Über Ündies















You know how amusing it is to find an image in an old magazine that seems to be a bit, ummm, suspicious, but then you realise long after you and those uneducated clowns you call friends spent hours snickering over it that it just had another perfectly innocent meaning altogether? Like pre-1930's swastikas being a symbol for good luck?

These here handy-dandy Über Ündies are perfect if you're in a "Springtime For Hitler" kinda mood. And who isn't in a "Springtime For Hitler" mood these days?

I suppose this could count as another free pattern but it would fit into the same iffy category as other spastic entries such as the chicken bone necklace or that nighmarish bunny face pin.

It could also be a welcome addition to that Nazi Fetish getup your significant other keeps insisting that you wear while you spank the bejesus out of him with a riding crop. Don't ask me how I know this, I know all kinds of stuff about you, pervert!

I, for one, will be making this yoke with that sharp radish design. I'm thinking I just don't have enough lingerie with root vegetables on them.
