Noortje de Keijzer’s Knitted Character Video Depicts a Fake Boyf

This cute and quirky knitted character video by Noortje de Keijzer plays with the concept of making your own boyfriend.

The video features a woman who is lonely and depressed. Through her anguish she decides to create her own boyfriend. She puts her impressive knitting skills to the test and through doing so gains a life partner.

All of the events she was partaking in alone beforehand have now been enhanced with the company of her knitted boyfriend. The knitted character is the perfect boyfriend and even is soft to cuddle with. It seems her life has found the missing piece. At the end she puts him in the washing machine to clean—something I’m sure some women wish they had the ability to do.
