I realize that a Jacob’s Ladder isn’t really that impressive, its mostly just an intro for the link I’m about to post. And I wanted to see what it would look like, the white string with my cadmium nails. I found a man on youtube who must be some cat’s cradle yogi or something, he twists his hands so fast with the string and makes bridges so intricate I cannot possibly describe it. Or its just to early for me to be forming sentences.

This video, shows him making a huge knot and then its not, a knot.

This one is a really beautiful shape, a banana tree? can you imagine what it would be like to do this?! I could have been the coolest girl in the second grade!

Below, Marshall’s handwork turned into the perfect package trimmings. Turns out Crayola makes a really good and bright set of watercolors. Note for my mom, notice the “m” figures in the lower package. . . courtesy of her instruction. Oh yes, and I like these packages on udder, they are so simple and nice.
