Quick project



(From this evening)

"Why are you making a crochet magnetic mine?"
"Who are you making a magnetic mine for?"
"Are you going to throw it at people? It's heavy!"
"Why is she not answering?"
(I roll it over various objects, picking them up)
"Oh!"

What sort of magnets does it have in it?

They're "Darice 3/4" magnets" as dutifully copied from the pattern here:

They're pretty impressively strong.

Have you ever played with neodymium magnets? Because, whoa.

I'm pretty leery of magnets these days, given how many things I tend to carry around that could be rendered useless by a magnet mishap.

That's true, neodymium magnets are more about supernatural abilities and less about magnetic fields. Who would have expected inanimate objects to have TK?
