Holy Living Fossils, Batman!

I was babysitting over the weekend, and the kids were watching old episodes of Super Friends. Have you ever seen this show? It is completely ridiculous. Those super heroes think they have the right to go around violating all the laws of physics! For instance, Superman was flying through outer space trying to catch up with a space ship full of bad guys, so he pulled out a lasso and threw it through space, grabbed the space ship, which came to a screeching halt, and pulled it back to him. In outer space.

In another episode, the Super Friends found a cave hidden underneath an ocean, and in the big cavern was the lost city of Atlantis. There was also a green T-Rex with opposable thumbs. That's when Robin uttered "Holy living fossils!" And it reminded me of a crochet project I started a while ago...

I started some sort of shawl/shirt thing from a Stitch n' Bitch book in May. It's really hard because it isn't rectangular, and it uses this stitch pattern known as the shell relief. So I did a few rows at the beginning of the summer and never got around to doing the remaining 97% of it. But I did complete enough of it to discover that the "shell relief" stitch is actually a TRILOBITE stitch! For you non-nerds out there, I will post a side-by-side picture of the crochet and a trilobite (using my handy dandy Copy and Paste skills!)

I think I could create my own line of paleontology-inspired crochet attire. What do you think?
