Alright, let’s talk about this… this… Aries Pegasus Knit thing, whatever that is. Sounds fancy, like somethin’ them city folks wear. But lookin’ at it, it’s just a sweater, right? A jumper, like my grandson Billy calls it.
Now, they say it’s got a “Pegasus” on it. A horse with wings, you say? Well, I ain’t never seen a horse flyin’ ’round here, unless it was in them picture books Billy reads. And stars? Pfft, I see plenty of stars at night when I go out to feed the chickens. No need to put ’em on a sweater, I tell ya.
They’re sayin’ it’s made of “100% cotton.” Well, that’s good, I guess. Cotton’s soft, like them old shirts my husband used to wear. But this thing costs a fortune! My neighbor, Martha, she told me her niece bought one for, get this, 455 dollars! Dollars! For a sweater! I could buy a whole flock of chickens for that much! And have money left over for feed!
- It’s got a horse with wings. Fancy, but what good is it? Won’t make you fly, I bet.
- It’s got stars. Big deal. Come out to the country, I’ll show you real stars.
- It’s made of cotton. Okay, that’s somethin’ I understand. Cotton’s good.
- It costs a whole lotta money. More money than sense, if you ask me.
And what’s this “Gothic A” they’re talkin’ about? Sounds spooky. Like somethin’ from them vampire movies Billy watches. I don’t like spooky stuff. Give me a good ol’ flower pattern any day. Or maybe a nice plaid. Plaid’s practical. Hides the dirt, you know.
They call it “knitwear.” Well, my grandma used to knit. Made me a scarf once. Warm it was, kept me cozy through them cold winters. But she didn’t charge no 455 dollars for it, let me tell ya. Probably used yarn she got on sale, or maybe even from unravelin’ an old sweater. That’s what we did back then. Didn’t waste nothin’.
This “Aries” brand, whoever they are, they seem to like this “streetwear” stuff. Streetwear? What’s that even mean? Clothes for walkin’ on the street? I walk on the street every day, and I don’t need no fancy 455-dollar sweater to do it. My old overalls work just fine, thank you very much.
And another thing, folks keep talkin’ about “Aries” like it’s some kinda person. “Aries woman this, Aries moon that…” I tell ya, I don’t get it. Sounds like horoscope mumbo jumbo to me. When I was young, we didn’t have time for such things. We had work to do. Plantin’ crops, milkin’ cows, takin’ care of the family. No time for star charts and what not.
Now, some folks are sayin’ this knittin’ stuff is good for your brain. Keeps you calm, they say. Well, I ain’t never knitted in my life, but I’m plenty calm. Maybe it’s ’cause I spend my days out in the fresh air, workin’ with my hands. Or maybe it’s ’cause I don’t worry about things I can’t control. Like how much some silly sweater costs.
So, this Aries Pegasus Knit… it’s just a sweater, right? A fancy, overpriced sweater with a horse on it. If you got money to burn, go ahead and buy it. But me? I’ll stick with my overalls and my good ol’ cotton shirts. They keep me warm, they’re practical, and they don’t cost a fortune. And that, my friends, is all that matters.
And let me tell you somethin’ else. If you’re lookin’ for a good time, don’t go spendin’ your money on fancy clothes. Come on over, have some sweet tea, and we’ll sit on the porch and watch the stars. The real stars, not them ones on a sweater. That’s what I call a good time.
And if you really want somethin’ knitted, I can introduce you to Martha’s niece. She’s always knittin’ somethin’. Maybe she can make you a sweater for a whole lot less than 455 dollars. And it’ll probably be a lot warmer, too. Made with love, not just some fancy machine in some big factory.
So, that’s my take on this Aries Pegasus Knit. Take it or leave it. Just remember, common sense ain’t so common anymore. And a pretty picture on a piece of clothing don’t make it worth a farm.
