It's crazy sometimes how you have a dream, take action, feel defeated, verge of giving up and then the universe lands you in the right space and time.... patience. Patience is so powerful.
After telling my kids patience on repeat and watching them have to wait a few moments, I want that for me too. But my wait is typically much longer, so much longer that sometimes I even forget that I wanted the thing, until it comes to me and open my eyes. Sometimes it comes to me and I am not even awake to it, but when I do realize, I am very grateful. As traveling to Buffalo this season comes to a close I hope more opportunities open up to help others experience flow toys.

Dancing it up at the Kinzua Heritage Festival! The only photo or video available of me from the whole weekend. This happens every year and I always wish to get a video... maybe one day.

Weird little faces that enjoy being spun... I hope someone names these little dudes.

First attempt at Juggling/devil/flower sticks.
Although the inner tubing is supposed to make it grippy, I feel like it is actually slippy.
Suggestions...
Flow toys are always a work in progress.

Sometimes when you wing it making things you run out of yarn. I had to make a trip to Dreamboat Marine to get another skein to finish this set of poi.

The label says it makes one hat. Now I know it also makes 1.75 poi with this pattern. I love this yarn it is reflective in the dark and UV reactive!!

That do you think for the handles
yellow (right) or green (otherside)? 😆

Ok so I was going through my things and looking for inspiration for my next set of Halloween poi!!

In the past I have made zombies, shrunken heads, 🎃 Jack-O-Lanterns, and my favorite frog wizards. This year I will probably make some of the same but I am going to start with something new right now.

Actually, now that I think about it I still have some glow in the dark yarn in my stash I can pull out!!

Yeah so many ideas flying around in my head right now. I am excited to see what this next set will be. Sometimes the ideas morph mid crochet. Lol mad scientist or mad crochetist?!

Why are green and purple always my first color grabs for Halloween themed?
