I *had* to do it. You see, I've been talking about what I want to do with BahaCoca and Gawjus and how I'm going to meld the two together for now, and where I want to go with all this and blah blah blah yadda yadda and generally just waffling in about it with my girlfriend, and somehow I came up with the idea of funky/stylish knitted hot water bottle covers, at which point she laughed like mad and told me that was too Nana even for me (I have a Nana-force Luke Skywalker would envy!)
So naturally I had to draft one up, and knit it to fit the only hottie in the house (we didn't have much call for them on the islands!) just so I could torment the hottie-hater and try to justify their coolness in that so-retro-they're-fashionable way. And then take blurry pictures with a large stuffed bunny. I present to you, the Hippocratic Hottie.
This hottie cover is also an excellent reason why you shouldn't knit an intarsia cross you're making up on the fly in the dark. Please don't ask why it occurred to me as a good thing at the time.

I don't know about anyone else but I like the cover, I like the cross, I like the whole thing! Nanna's rule xo
