Barbara, a fellow Viennese &#8220;Craftista&#8221; is currently working on her first bigger Paper Twine project: a crocheted summer bag in white and natural. Or at least she is working on it as long as her tomcat, Pommes, allows her to do so &#8211; as you can see Pommes has taken a liking to paper twine as well. Luckily the twine is sturdy enough to survive any cat-attack! And even if it&#8217;s chewed on paper twine is not a problem for the feline assistant: there are no small hairs to swallow and no dyes or additives that could make the material harmful (&#8230; and it&#8217;s not really tasty so the chewing won&#8217;t last long). And last, but not least, Barbara says that Paper Twine is not only great to work with once you&#8217;ve gotten used to it but also any cat hair is just falling through the crocheted pieces of the future bag. Paper Twine is so smooth that cat hair just can&#8217;t stick to it.  So &#8211; as opposed to most other materials &#8211; there are no longer-lasting hairy signs of the animal assistant once you leave your home or studio! We&#8217;ll keep you posted on the progress of the bag (or, as it is currently known, the cat-nap-rug).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Bag_With_Cat_Crochet.jpg\" alt=\"Paper Twine: A cat-friendly material to work with \" title=\"Paper Twine: A cat-friendly material to work with \" width=\"480\" height=\"314\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1814\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Bag_With_Cat_Crochet.jpg 480w, http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Bag_With_Cat_Crochet-300x196.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Vorderteil_H\u00e4keltasche.jpg\" alt=\"Barbara&#039;s Bag made of Paper Twine - Crocheted\" title=\"Barbara&#039;s Bag made of Paper Twine - Crocheted\" width=\"480\" height=\"358\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1811\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Vorderteil_H\u00e4keltasche.jpg 480w, http:\/\/www.paperphine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/PaperPhine_PaperTwine_Vorderteil_H\u00e4keltasche-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><br \/>\n<em>The Cat-Nap-Rug that will become a crocheted summer bag shortly (sorry, Pommes!)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The feline assistant is checking the quality of the Paper Twine Just a few words and pictures to share with you about the cat-friendliness of Paper Twine!
