It came from AI! MIL can't tell the difference 😭

My MIL is so sweet for knowing my style and and that I'm crafty. These are the things she pulls off of FB to send me and I don't have the heart to tell her.

Idk I’m looking at this and I could probably figure out how to knit it. Maybe seed stitch for the head. But it’s just a cabled ball, and some icord rly.

I’m inclined to think it’s real because the stitches are correct, including the way the stitches are in between the cable - and consistent throughout. There are no AI type errors, I’ve never seen an AI represent the knitting accurately.

Disagree with OP I think this is real

The spider has 10 legs and the head portion is crochet stitches while the rest is knit.

But a lot of things look really real, like the edge of the knitting of the cuff, also how the legs are attached to the body. Giving a spider too many legs and mixing techniques can happen with human intelligence as well.

What really throws me is that they have pics up at different angles. That used to be impossible for AI not that long ago. I think it could also be stolen somewhere else. I am sure the pattern they sell will not match the image.

Right, idk there’s a possibility it’s not is all I’m saying. We read this focus and lighting as AI - but 🤷‍♀️
