(heh OK, I DID contemplate trying it...) I tried sprang once. I failed miserably. Don't know that I really WANT to try it again... although it's less on the ick list than naålbinding! Most of the Fail was probably due to trying to make it on a bent coathanger rather than a real frame, though, now that I think about it. Ah the joys of taking cheap classes! Love the look of the finished pieces that some of my classmates did, so I'd love to have items MADE of sprang!
