There are those simple folks out there who think crochet is just for the ladies. Foolish mortals. Us crafty folks know that crochet is for the masses and that if everyone just got themselves a crochet hook and started chainstitching themselves a bit of amigarumi the world would be a much better, and cuter, place.
Enter Nathan Vincent, a man who is dragging crochet into the world of the manly. Nathan takes the manly and he hooks it in crochet form. Wander through his his website for some astoundingly marvellous wool-based wonders such as a bearskin rug, safari trophies and, ugh, a crocheted urinal.
If my opinion isn't good enough for you then check out how impressed Martha Stewart is on her show.
To be honest I am so envious of what Nathan can create with his crochet hook that I am considering working on a machine that can steal his talents and transfer them into my own brain. Or I could just learn to crochet...
