It is made up of a string of pompoms and has to be knitted together with very large needles. I am using 20mm needles for these.<div><br /></div><div>It is an acrylic yarn but is so very soft and the pompoms give the scarves an amazing bouncy texture and chunky feel. I can't wait until I've finished them so that I can wear them.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4947602694583525-1135642895586384341?l=this-ravelled-sleeve.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Daddy's Girlnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4947602694583525.post-46058516190424194192009-12-01T04:12:00.006+11:002009-12-01T04:29:12.784+11:00<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">I am making jewelry - necklaces, earrings, bracelets, etc - to sell online and at Uni in the hopes of making money for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Querelle</span>.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">"What is <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Querelle</span>?!"
