I fully missed the scissors upon the thread too! How did that happen? The photographs of the activity are fun, in stark contrast to the painful image of your arm, with dark light, swollen skin in a red background. Did you try to blow your hand up like a balloon, starting from below your elbow? Thanks for the inspiration to go for it. I promise to give something another try.Kristinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04323713538989288259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018402196949735412.post-11507922452766156842009-04-05T09:48:00.000-07:002009-04-05T09:48:00.000-07:00Oh no!!

I suppose it's too much to hope for that the bees will learn that you're the nice person who brings the sugar water and extra real estate, and then behave more politely around you.<br><br>Your Kauni is beautiful!!

Sheesh.<br><br>It looks like good fun, and I firmly plan on steeking a sweater sometime soon. I know where to go for advice.<br><br>I kinda like the Kauni as a vest!<br><br>I dragged this comment box over the sting photo. My hives arrive next week, and the bees in two more, so sting photos are not encouraging right now.

I haven't done it on a large scale, but I modified a sweater for Willem, so I've done it and survived.
