Mona, it's a cliche, but beauty *is* always in the eye of the beholder and who among us would want to be anything other than unique? Personally, I thought the crochet spats were funny and certainly an attention-getter! And I had much the same opinion about the pink wig from knitty.com.
If it's the quality of your work that's bothering you, well, we all start somewhere and some of us, like me, haven't knit for years and need to start over again. I've only been participating in this group for a few months but I've learned lots and I'm enjoying my "new" skills.
So please stick around and tell us what you're working on.
