It all started with a
book of "pop out artwear", which contained a spiral bracelet.
I traced the pattern and thought that making it in felt would show off the layering of the felt at the cut edges of the spiral.
Though the paper kept the shape crisp and circular, the felt went all floppy, even though it was thick and in double layers. Lesson learned. However, the rope can be knotted into place -
I'll use it as a wrist rest on the mouse hand at the computer. Strange how the mouse hand always gets so cold...

...and beware of the other arm at the computer. I lost the feeling in the last two fingers of the left hand because of pressing a nerve all the time while working.
