Sew, what do ya think of my car ?



Here's a sports car you could pullover very smartly in — a Ferrari knitted from wool.

Art student Lauren Porter spent ten months making the full-size replica using 12 miles of yarn.

The car, a cross between a Testarossa and a 355, is made of more than 250 squares over a steel frame and the horse badge is hand-embroidered.

Lauren, 22, who goes to Bath Spa University, said: “I get men admiring the racing lines and old women look at the needlework.”

Bet it has them in stitches.
