gelukkig in de jaren zestig

last year i started collecting all my yarn scraps (literally anything that is long enough to tie together, everything else is collected in a plastic bag and will be repurposed as toy stuffing)... 

i tied all scraps together using a russian join... (have you heard about a russian join? it's brilliant, every knitter or crocheter should know how to do this)

... and i ended up with this... probably the ugliest ball of yarn i've ever seen. 

and i LOOOVE it!!

(apparently this is what you call a "magic ball" because you never know which colour comes next)

and now i'm trying to figure out a way to turn this "pretty ugly" magic ball into a "ugly pretty" project! :)
