Supplies: large metal loop (wire macrame hoop) thrifted lacy doily (thinner fibers like doilies made of mercerized cotton work the best) small ball of inexpensive light weight yarn (cotton/poly blend for less fray) clothes pins or clips decorations (feathers, shells, stones, jewelry pieces) Instead of the traditional dream catcher style method of wrapping a loop with leather lacing (see here how to create a traditional dream catcher), I covered the metal hoop with a multi colored light weight yarn.

It seems such a waste. There must be ways to reuse or recycle the bath puff. I unravelled one that was destined for the bin. The centre cord that held it together just needed a little snip and the whole thing came loose very easily. There was nearly 2 metres of tube netting in that one puff! I’ve seen yarn sleeves made with a similar netting. Photo from Ozquilts.com.au I snipped a small section of the tube netting and stuck my pretty red yarn cake in it. My only concern is that when the ball gets really small, the netting will be too loose for it. Anyway, I still had a lot of netting left. I knitted till I ran out of netting and cast off. I wove the ends in with my fingers and reattached the hanging cord. Now for the test. It aced the pot scrubbing test but how will it go getting machine washed?
