A friend and I once debated the merits of opening a specialist wool shop, which sells hand-knitted clothing and balls of wool – the twist being is that the shop is aimed at adults. The items of clothing would be revealing and quite sexualised – hence the shop name, ‘Sexu-Wool™’ – and there would by quite artistic displays of erotic imagery made, Art Attack style, from wool collages on the walls and ceiling. The shop would be dimly lit in a red afterglow, and the shop staff would sport these skimpy woolen outfits.
I think, as a niche business, it would take off like a rocket. What do you think?
Failing that, I plan on opening another clothing shop, where Muslims can get robes, outfits and accessories on the go, served quickly and efficiently – Burqa King™.
Am I Dragon’s Den material or what?

Gizza job then! I’m quite nifty with the old knitting needles, I’m offering my services to hand craft the uniforms. May I suggest maybe comedy knitted breasts and crochet buttocks? For the gentleman maybe a mohair cod piece?
Tight knitted shorts? Oh the chafing!
I’m feeling it for the open chested cardi though, it wouldn’t by any chance be a bit Starsky And Hutchish would it? With the knitted hair to match?http://www.fetishwool.net/html/catsuits_… Something like this would showcase you at your best I think.
Haz, of course I can knit, erm, I just don’t want to right now.
Just hold your horses Saturday boy. The staff will NOT all be wearing skimpy outfits. Only you sitting in the window will be objectifying yourself avec beret, Shaun the sheep back pack (non negotiable that) and a pair of those knitted Uggs™ ‘pour homme’.
I intend to sit at the till with a belligerent attitude and wearing Latvian mittens. New Boots™ can do the Greggs™ run, showcasing the outfit of the week.
We could knit Burqas and sell them via a hatch like Thornton’s™ does with ice creams. I believe this is called ‘optimising the market’ (I’d still let you have a little sign saying Burqa-King™ though)
OMG I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY want a shop called Sexu-Wool™!
I’m the boss though you pair of upstarts….ME. I get to turn the flip chart…
edit – Ah well then that means whilst you two are doing all the graft , it will be moi who gets to have a lie down in the back fondling the wool. Your ruthless ambition just robbed you of your own little quiet place in the stock room… and anyway…f off..I’ve got a laser pointer which pisses on your flip chart *aims at your knitted Albanian hair till it singes*
lolol @ that link! grawl……
BTW can anyone achoowelly knit? Cos I can’t!
