I don’t even know what hoopin means nor do I know what this thing is for? Anyone? And at what festival is this an “eye-catcher”? Oh my. Worked up in different colors doesn’t make it better either. And $30 for anyone interested in her yarn scraps!
For all you hoopin mamas, performers, woodland creatures, and anyone else who wants to add some sparkle to their wardrobe. An eye-catcher at festivals.

I might work for a kids costume but no adult should wear this

Hoopin as in Hula Hooping. And I’m guessing a ‘fringe’ festival

I think hoopin refers to hula hoop dancing. If that is the case, wouldn’t the crazy fringe interfere?

I think for everyday wear it’s pretty odd.. but it would look pretty neat for a belly dancer or if you went to Shambalah or Burning Man. I think it’s all in the context of how/where it’s worn.

Like others said hoopin is hula hooping/dancing. And I have to agree I think it would get in the way. Although it might be interesting to see what happens when someone is using a fire hoop and wearing one of these lol. Oh and festivals…they hoop at all kinds of events. Music events, renaissance, art fairs/shows, and all kinds of stuff. Its the new trendy hippie thing to do

Renaissance fairs, really? I thought hula hoops weren’t around until the 50′s?

Fringe, even beaded fringe, I can understand.
But why fringe made with fun fur? *shudder*

Okay, now I really want to make these for my 4-year-old twin nieces.

Skirts like these are all the rage for tribal/fusion bellydance. I made one for myself out of yarn and I’ve seen them out of similar type, but really, they are so easy to make that it seems silly to buy one.

I was at an outdoor concert yesterday and watched several young women dancing while hula hooping. I found it fascinating. There were not, however, wearing anything remotely resembling this!!!
