Darn. Normally I'm a three-block walk to the ferry to Bainbridge, but right now I'm 1,000 miles away. I'm always looking for interesting unbreakable ornaments, even though the cats have behaved well around our trees, so far.

Ah, yarn balls of all sorts-- always a delight and these look like tons of fun. A longtime lover of pompoms, I will gladly explore these more SOLID, yet soft versions!

My cat would adore these felted balls.
