Fuzzy yarn


I've been knitting.

Pencil on drawing paper. It's floating, but I'm letting it be. Back to the needles.

  5. Wow, that is a lot of detail! It looks soft and fluffy - will you show us what you make from it? Love the chair too (those two colours together are so nice). I don't like standing either, I find it hard to hold my arm out at that angle. And I never stand when I can sit!

  10. Nita this is great and I love that it is floating on the page with the small thread at the bottom holding it up! Reminds me of Max Ernst
