Yellow Striped Poi Done

If you can remember, I wanted to make my own sock poi. This is the pocket I made up.
When you want to embroider letters, you always get lost in the amount of threads:-) They are made using a machine stitch that makes three stitches at the same place.

If the application seems greyed to you, it's caused by the adhesive I fixed it with before sewing. Unwanted nice effect:-D

The poi themselves. The stripes look great when twirled. I hope they will live long and won't get dirty too soon:)
