The Woolly Carousel

I trotted straight into the neighborhood yarn shop and scrambled up a low wicker stool right onto the craft table! Clamped to the edge was a big, expandable wooden umbrella yarn swift with crisscrossing lattice slats. Naturally, a miniature carousel needed an immediate spin test! I planted my feet against the tabletop, gripped one of the smooth birch crossbars with both hands, and gave it an energetic shove! Whirrr-swish! The wooden lattice flared outward and whirled in a breezy, spinning blur! It kicked up a sweet scent of cedar and wool, sending a row of hanging pastel skeins swaying like festival stage banners! I hopped in place, utterly dazzled by my giant rotating wooden windmill!
