It took me long enough but I've produced three of these since Christmas. I call it the Nest because, well, it looks like one (please, if you have any other name suggestions, I would love to hear them). I wanted to use a traditional material (yarn) in a different way, while maintaining a simple look and feel (a la Muji). So, I stuck to natural tones of 100% wool yarn (sounds itchy, but it isn't) and opposing structural elements (a knitted band vs. loosely wrapped yarn) to create an interesting textural look (I hope).
What do you think? Should I try selling them on Etsy?
(Robert, you'll be happy to know that I am still and always will be a Scollar loyalist.)

I love it 10 times more than the scollar!!!
it reminds me of those necklaces that some african women wear to elongate their necks. Or maybe it was just the camera angle.
