Wool ropes and coils

wool coils spontaneous head band
I'm loving the process of coiling woolen ropes into spirals. I started playing with these a few weeks ago using the same technique I used with newspaper for these, but with thread vs. glue.  One day I took a couple of spirals and cinched them (with a few stitches) to a ring of wool I was using to hold my hair back. My new favorite headband was born... and out of total spontaneity and with quite a bit of wonkiness. The funny thing is that it's receiving an embarrassing amount of attention. So simple, but something about it has made multiple people stop and comment... including folks in the waiting room at the dentist office and in line at the grocery store! I know it doesn't look like much, but I believe those wonky little spirals have something dynamic going on, and I'm planning on making bunches more for all sorts of projects.
