It is hopelessly wet and grey here and has been for many days. At least it is not too cold and the drizzle has put an end to the Cedar pollen. I have been playing at making Squiggle knit scarfs. I learned it from Filamental at ididntrealeyes (look! I made a link). She always inspires me! So far, my shawls are just experiments with yarns I have on hand. The blue one is novelty yarn and a thin green rayon. I thought the pom pom one would be really cool, but something is not right--the pom poms are too regular, the background yarn to heavy? But here is something fun. I have been trying to think of a way to make curtains for my studio, curtains that I would like anyway. I don't really need them for privacy. So I tried hanging these shawls over a window and they look interesting and different. They are fast and fun to knit. Maybe I could use string and perhaps I could spin something for the nubby yarn. That should be easy for me! ha!

Way to go! I love the pom poms the most! How great would that be? I want curtains like that, too!
Habu has some really cool black and white fuzzy pom poms and that goes with the paper yarn, too. You should take a look.
By the way. . .how DID YOU DO THAT?
I really want to know. Did you spin some into yarn?
The shawl I sent to you is way cool for a light cover if you string it on a circular metal piece. I am thinking about doing that with some of them that I did for myself.
Again, I wish I could spin, too.
I feel left out of all the fun.
