Yes, I'm aghast, but if I were 20, I'd probably be wearing this with intent. (Anyone recall those suede Brazilian cut bikinis in the 80s? Mine had fringe in dubious places, and the only part of it that made me uncomfortable was wearing suede on a hot beach and not being able to cool off in the sea.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-placement-or-is-it-just-me#post-1648890 Sat, 23 Apr 2016 11:14:01 +0000 anne 1648890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I am missing something here!

Definitely not just you. I've seen so many instances in the stores of unfortunate pattern placement.

Uh, no.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-placement-or-is-it-just-me#post-1648678 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 20:09:39 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1648678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>maybe this is designed by one of those people who are making knitted uteruses (uteri?) and sending them to congress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-placement-or-is-it-just-me#post-1648657 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 19:20:08 +0000 Muffin 1648657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-placement-or-is-it-just-me#post-1648653 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 19:14:21 +0000 kkards 1648653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well....maybe if I was 20 again.....but probably not.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pattern-placement-or-is-it-just-me#post-1648607 Fri, 22 Apr 2016 17:35:44 +0000 El Cee 1648607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh…no.
