The Clothespin Lounge

Pinching open a springy wooden clothespin takes a lot of muscle when you're made of chunky yarn! After trekking back inside from the courtyard, my feet needed a proper break, so I set up shop right in the middle of the dining table. I wriggled two wooden pegs together so their wire springs locked into a sturdy A-frame, then draped a soft linen coaster across the gap like a tiny hammock. One cautious hop onto the cloth—creak!—and it held without tipping! I kicked back into the dip, resting my mini selfie stick against the peg like a cane. Isn't this the coziest five-star lounge chair you've ever seen?
