Three Billy Goats Groovy

Meanwhile, down on Sunflower Farm, Mom just got back from taking the kids to Sears for new sweaters. Now they’re so stylish, one of them even tries to do the moonwalk!




Submittituted by Katherine B. Actual story: The sweaters are a gift from a fan of the farm, which operates a creamery.

      I had the feeling that the kid was trying to walk backwards out of the sweateuw. Sorry, but it’s become part of my vocabulary.

      And the ears!

      I can just picture the mom goat’s perplexity – “Dear me, their coats are growing in the strangest colors…and patterns!”

    This is mind-numbingly cute, I had a report to produce this afternoon but now I can’t concentrate, all I’m thinking about is litlle tails flapping!

    That’s it, I found my calling! I am a goat sweater knitter! The job also requires that I must travel to personally put the sweaters on the little tykes to be sure they fit properly.
    I’m not kidding!

      I’ll join you, Margaret! Think a small dog sweater pattern would fit? And of course personalized fitting MUST be part of the service we offer at the Goat Sweater Knitting Knetwork!

      • Margaret April 20, 2016 / 1:50 pm

        Yes, Laura, please join me! A small dog sweater pattern should fit.

        I love the name, Goat Sweater Knitting Knetwork!

    Oh, crap, they are beyond adorable – and, yes, the walking backward, the tail flappage, the complete package of cuteness.

      Stop making me giggle like a 4th grade boy. Birdcage’s, “MOM! Stop licking my butt!!!!” Was followed by Murray’s, “Oh, crap!”

        There are no Freudian slips.?

          I wrote and erased several comments. I’m just going to stop.

    There is soooo much cute going on here! Flippyflappy tails. Squeaky baas. Adorable little faces. Pre-lurkensproingen. Even their short legs are cute, including mama’s. And mama looks like she might have a couple more still inside, waiting for their debut.

    It’s all keeling me. Even the fat (attentive) momma is cute. Flappity taileos are amazing.

    Backwards walking. Ooops I’m in reverse!!

    Mike, you know what I want. What I need.

    This needs a Knitted tag!!!

    Up until the end, these are the least sproingy bebeh goats I’ve ever seen! Maybe sweateus have a calming effect? The flippty tails are beyond adorbs!

    GASP! *klunk*

    Who in their right mind, or their left mind for that matter, could not love baby goats in sweaters?!?!?!?!?

    Oh, and I agree – it needs a knitted tag!!
