Bodacious boas

I've been spending far too much time in front of my computer the last couple of days. This generally leads me to neat sites with FAR too many cool things I want to make or buy. I mostly look without spending money, although I enjoy the browsing process.

A site I came across this evening had two hand-knit objects that are very interesting.

Take a look.

Aren't these boas great? I think they're so creative and fun. Now I just wish I could find a pattern for such lovelies. Any of you care to design one?
