Cranes are some of the most elegant birds in the world and the 15 species of cranes are variations on the theme of black, white, and red. I just made a temari that uses these colors and now I have lots of ideas for making variations. I improvised my design but instructions for a similar ball can be found at Temarikai.
This is a Wattled Crane at the International Crane Foundattion; I would like to make a ball that also uses grey.
I was thinking of the Whooping Crane when I designed my ball but I love the color combination with the rich chestnut brown and straw gold on this Grey Crowned Crane. It's time to go thread shopping!
