I'm not sure if it's intentional, but all I see in this hotel bathroom wallpaper is stacked cats

Someone else mentioned it’s houndstooth, but there’s a company out there who turned that pattern into “catstooth.” I own pants with this pattern and they make me very happy!

I feel like I'm being judged....a little uneasy tbh.

Stock photo since I’m not up for sharing my face 😆 I don’t have the blazer, but I kinda regret that decision now.

Company who made them is Betabrand. They’re comfy!

The name of this pattern is "Houndstooth" in case you want a suit jacket with a bunch of stacked cats on it

TIL that Houndstooth dates back to at least 360-100 BC.

That is absolutely incredible!

According to the Houndstooth Wikipedia article,

The oldest Bronze Age houndstooth textiles found so far are from the Hallstatt Celtic Salt Mine, Austria, 1500-1200 BC.

Mind-bending.

Edited because I forgot a word.

In German, it's Hahnentritt (roosters foot).

What we’ve got here is a mild case of cat brain

I've always seen those little plastic flippy frog toys you could get as a kid where you push your finger down on the back of them and when it slips off they bounce away

That’s just Houndstooth.

You know, I've seen houndstooth, but it's always been really small. This is the first time I saw it large like this.

Are those... magneto helmets?

AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 333d

Apparently it's a lot of things. Maybe why such a popular pattern.

That also looks like Monero, the crypto coin

I see hounds teeth. Do you have one in ginham?

AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 333d (1 reply)

Not sure what ginham is

lime@feddit.nu · 2 pts · 333d

that's probably because the word is gingham
