    But, can you wear it in the rain? Or must it all be for inside use? Wonder if “yarn” is plyable? Or only good for lampshades, curtains and the like?

    Really happy to see you sharing this artist’s work. I’ve written about him several times on Crochet Concupiscence and really love what he does for so many reasons!
