Fabric, felt, knitted and plastic beads imprisoned in wire structures.
The Weston Sub is a work in progress, changing day by day. As you can see, the old main has been torn up in certain sections and moved off to the side, the new main to the left is now in service.

I was motivated to learn crochet for stress relief. I must say that I'm really enjoying it and can't wait until I'm skilled enough to try to make clothes with it! 😊
