Wow, Rob, I never knew that you were a connoiseur of knitting blogs! Maybe the next time you're in Rochester, you could meet my wife and her girlfriends for their weeky Stitch n' Bitch session!
And it took me all of five minutes to find out that this was a "yew carved and waxed tapestry needle holder". (And I'm running a fever right now, so I'm not at my best)... The Blogstress (at least, I assume the blogger is female, males don't quite have that sense of color) writes:
OK, it does look phallic, but I'm hoping that I'll never have to fish around for my needles anymore. The top just pops off.

Anyway, the original joke was that the wooden object in the very first picture looked somewhat phallic, and bad_quote was confused as to why it popped up in Google Image Search under "yew", although he didn't say so at the time. A little bit of URL manipulation on my part showed that it was a needle holder expertly carved out of yew wood, and in a fever-enduced delirious haze, I mocked bad_quote for his apparent knitting fetish. Hilarity ensued. Then the guy with the awful gaping rear-end picture showed up (just after your post, in fact!) and killed the buzz instantly.
My head still hurts.
And we're all just lucky that the Google Ad server is keying off of "knitting" and not "phallic"....
