![Grandma Goes Viral For Knitting With Beef Sticks: “A Resourceful Queen”]()
![Grandma knitting]()
Got to make do with what's around.
In today's interest space, it seems that the more ridiculous something is, the more viral it will go, and this video falls right into that category. I am prefacing this video that this looks like it's marketing genius versus an authentic moment caught on camera. Regardless, the internet can't get enough of it.
At the time of writing, a viral video has garnered more than 1 million likes and over 10.2 million views in twenty-four hours since posting. So, what is this video that has captured everyone's attention? It's a video of an elderly woman knitting with beef sticks.
Yep, throw out those knitting needles. Beef sticks are the newest tool for getting the perfect stitch.
The older woman sits in the corner of her living room as the person behind the camera captures the moment peaking through a doorway. Thankfully, your handmade item will not smell like smoked meat. The meat sticks were still packaged, and the woman wrapped the yarn around the cylinder meat shape.
"Grandma's on some new meds, and I found her knitting with beef sticks."
The on-screen caption reads. The creator also added, "I want what she's having" under the video in the post's caption.
Now, given that this post was uploaded by a jerky company called Righteous Felon, it does feel like this viral moment was planned. However, it's still hilarious. Whoever came up with this idea was a genius. It subtly shows off the product and is frankly something you might stumble upon an elderly person doing. The screws get a little loose as we age.
However, if this moment was not staged and this person really did walk in on Grandma knitting with beef sticks... She might need a
Smoke Meath Not Meth shirt from the
Whiskey Riff Shop. Her new meds must be
strong.

Of course, the comments will be top-notch with any video like this. Pairing an already stellar comments section with the news that TikTok will allegedly be banned in the next few days, folks let it rip with their thoughts. Heck, even Jack Link's and Visa were in the comments section of this post.
Check out a few of our favorites.
