EDIT (4/15/08): Here are my poi v. 1. They're made up of two crochet cotton inkle bands with a random pattern (about 1.5 yards each in blue, green, and teal), two light weight eye bolts, and two super bounce foam rubber balls.

These have been fun beginner poi. They're super adjustable, I can change the straps whenever I want, they don't really hurt when you hit yourself (they do bruise a little though), their comfortable, and I can take the balls off and put them in poi socks if I want.

I recently decide to take up poi, and thought it would be more fun to make my own set. This inkle band will make up the cord and finger loops for the right hand side. There's a lot more band than I need, so the extra will probably get save to make a scrap band purse.
