Inspired by a lively discussion on another thread I give you my greatest accidental Vinted discovery:

A CHENILLE KNITTED CHICKEN NUGGET.

So, am I being unreasonable to ask if this is not the greatest knitted chicken nugget you’ve ever seen?

YABU: I’ve seen better knitted chicken nuggets.
YANBU: It’s the best knitted chicken nugget I’ve had the pleasure of seeing.

Let’s try and keep this lighthearted as I do t doubt people will have strong opinions, and please feel free to share your own greatest online tat homemade discoveries! Link here

**NB Full disclosure: I don’t eat meat. I know, I know…. I am prepared for people to give my head a wobble about the realistic-ness of this knitted chicken nugget. If anyone has a link to a knitted quorn crispy nugget I may be better placed to judge the realism.

They're a bit upmarket, like they're being served with an intentional salad and sirachi mayo, rather than a dirty thermo nuclear sweet and sour sauce and slightly soggy fries.

I just guffawed at “intentional salad”. 😂

Do you think it’s cos their made of posh chenille (no idea if chenille is posh) instead of a polyester wool blend?

If you click on the link they're dino chicken nuggets so they actually are dinosaurs. Well, not actual dinosaurs obviously.

Agree. I could see them being part of the children's menu at a National Trust place. Adults would have artisan Scotch Eggs.
I'm going to ask my sis to crochet me a nugget.

My god you’re right.

These are listed as just chicken nuggets and…THEY HAVE FACES.

I don't eat meat either. I think they look like the Quorn dinosaurs. So yes, a winner!

Gatekeeper · 18/11/2022 21:36

They look rather like the unpleasant but otherwise wholesome poo my cat did after he scoffed a corn on the cob

So do chickens...

Love it. My sister is obsessed with knitting. I've shared with her!

TheOrigRights · 18/11/2022 21:42

My sis said she wouldn't make me one.
Crossing her off my Xmas list.

Okay...I am never sleeping again at the image of a chicken face on every nugget.

Tell her to cancel the jumper order: now you are all about the nuggets.

Sorry, but they look like turds. I liked the shells on the other thread more (which now appears to have been deleted…)

Please don't apologise for such a reasonable position!

@TheOrigRights, your sister is very unreasonable, though I suspect my sister will also refuse. And since she crocheted a beautiful blanket for my birthday, I have no grounds to complain!

Cactuslove · 18/11/2022 21:57

Omg I need a pattern- best nuggs ever! Here's a donut- Merry Christmas.

If you like these, check out the crocheted post box toppers for example with crocheted pumpkins and red poppies

friskybivalves · 18/11/2022 21:59

The ones with faces are erring towards sweetcorn halves IMHO. I'm with the fluffier goujons.

MichaelAndEagle · 18/11/2022 22:03

I'm sure we had knitted play food for one of the kids at some point. There was definitely bacon.
Love the nuggets though!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 18/11/2022 22:16

Macramé some macaroni cheese?
Weave some lentils?
Overlock stitch some oatmeal?

Luredbyapomegranate · 18/11/2022 22:21

I think they’d be great stress toys. I’d like them on my desk.

What have you called them?🧶 🍗❤️🧶🍗❤️

Why just have the nuggets when you can crochet a whole fast food restaurant?

I've never before seen a better knitted nugget... TBF it's the first one I've seen aswell but it's in the top 1 of knitted nuggets I've seen! StarGrin

Just a question... I'm sure you have your reasons but any reason why a nugget?
