Somebody wanna buy me these? I want them to use when learning new moves. My streamer poi have tennis balls inside them and kind of hurt when I make a mistake that results in my body or head getting whacked.

I wore these ALMOST every night at Burning Man, and they were PERFECT for the nights! I am so proud that I actually knitted these. There is TONS of fake fur on the playa (they call the really decked-out girls "Playa Poodles" with their little wristbands and skirts and headbands and fuzzy bras). I probably looked just like everyone else, but I bet most of them just bought fake fur or even bought their costumes pre-made. Amateurs!

Several months ago I asked Jon what color iPod cozy he wanted. He said Silver. He was kind of joking, and explained that he just didn't want anything silly like rainbow stripes or hot pink. Besides, his car is silver and it would be neat if it matched. So I went and found a silver sport-weight yarn and did this for my first ever project knitted in the round. It was HARD. I sat there and moaned and groaned and had to keep frogging it over and over for probably a couple of days before I finally got the hang using double-pointed needles. But I DID IT! Once I figured out how it all went together, I whipped this out in a snap!

(Actually, I made another one first. I followed the pattern I had found, but it came out too big and loose. I altered the pattern and THIS is actually the 2nd one - the one he uses EVERY single day. And it only took me a few hours to make it! And yeah, ok, it's a little goofy looking, my stitches aren't the best there, and I screwed up a little bit closing the bottom off with the kitchener stitch, but I am still proud, and Jon likes it anyway.^_^)
