Dorte, a goof is a silly mistake usually by someone who doesn't know what
they're talking about.
There are lots of words that could have been used including:
error, mistake, gaff, stupid mistake, moronic description, imbecilic
description, blunder, idiotic statement/description, ridiculous
There's no such a thing as a tatting pillow Dorte - they look more like
tailor's hams to me.
I've been tatting for 50 years this year (my lovely cousin taught me when I
was 13) and there's no tatting that would require one of these bulky things.
The joy of tatting is that it is to tiny and
Someone has tatting pillows for sale on eBay. Two of them!! Just imagine
:D At best, I'd say they look more like pressing hams than lace pillows
tsk, tsk

Dorte, the reason it is called an ebay goof is because the seller has
decided himself/herself to call his product a tatting pillow. So you are
right that you have never heard of a tatting pillow neither has anybody else.
Ebay keeps us thinking,
