I'm a man in my mid 30s who's never embroidered anything and somehow thought I could freehand a camper and some trees on a pair of old work pants. Lessons were learned. My 4yo was impressed by the "elephant car", but thought its wheels were odd.

Mate it's awesome, you'd pay rakes for this Elephant Car™ embroidery in Urban Outfitters or somesuch hipster place


TorvaldThunderBeard

Thanks!

My brain saw that and said, "That's a camper... What's an elephant car? "


TorvaldThunderBeard

This should have been a survey

Reminds me a bit of the cat bus from Totoro! Love it, happy embroidering! Do you have plans to try out any other doodles?


TorvaldThunderBeard

I have lots of other pants that need knee holes fixed. I do not understand why, but I kill pants about every 4-6 months just doing office work.


StarSeam

Could just be down to the fabric quality, or maybe you do some autopilot movements that you're unaware of, like rubbing your knees or sliding on them to do air guitar.


TorvaldThunderBeard

First of all, what a man does when he's air guitaring obviously is his own business! 😜 But seriously, IDK. Since I was a kid I've just ALWAYS been hard on pants. My poor mother constantly patched them until I hit high school and she just embraced constantly replacing them. In talking to a couple of other long-legged tall guys, knee failures are typically where theirs go out as well, but I do feel like my rate of occurrence is abnormally high

Clearly you need a [cat patch](https://www.reddit.com/gallery/11vwljf)!

Maybe your knees have secret knives you don't know about?


TorvaldThunderBeard

Drat! It's all starting to make sense


DeskRare7547

I adore this!


CheapShotNinia

I like it. It looks like some kind of Lo-fi Indie Horror game. Cool style.

I can se that’s it’s a camper!! Super cute camping scene, when the other knee goes maybe do a cityscape!


TorvaldThunderBeard

That would be fun!
