things moving around my neck2, lol!

[sara3]

okay, re-post from chatterbank. let's see what you scientists think!



today I wore a lightweight scarf, looping once around my neck, the ends hanging equally down my frontage, right and left. why does it then move around so that the right side is lower than the left? I straightened it lots of times but after about an hour, the right side was a good 6" lower than the left.

also, necklaces move (also to the right, I think). the clasp starts at the back, then works its way around to the right.

please explain! thank you :o)

try washing your neck
it may be v greasy

Does the scarf always move to the right? Does the scarf need to be worn the same way [is the end that dangles on the right always on the right when you wear it] due to a pattern or design?

It may be that the 'knit' of the scarf material makes it travel around your neck as you move, pretty much like a mat on a carpet when you walk on it. Anyone who has experienced walking through a field will know how fast an seed pod of some grasses will travel up your legs.
The necklace obviously has a pattern in the links so happens to travel to the right too.

"try washing your neck it may be v greasy "

that's not at all, beejay

[sara3]

beejay, you're a scientist now, are you?

wildwood, it's just a plain jersey cotton scarf. and I don't get why a chain would travel in any direction!

[society]

meant to say - that's not nice at all ^^^

[sara3]

don't worry society, beejay and I have an agreement. he's rude and obnoxious, and I dismiss him ;o)

[beejay1124]

ok society
just trying to be helpful - so i was

hi sara

[cazzz1975]

maybe its to do with posture and how you stand/walk, you may lean slightly causing clothes/jewellery to slide in the same direction?

[sara3]

hello beejay, you're up late tonight x

[Sandy-Wroe]

It must have something to do with the earth's gravitation pull. The way water always circulates clockwise when you're emptying a sink. Your scarf's just obeying Newton's first law of something or other?

[sara3]

cazzz, check your mail!

and I don't think so.. or does this not happen to other people? you put on a necklace with the clasp at the back.. does it just stay there all day?

[beejay1124]

yup- noseying around for a wee while
just back in from salsa class

[Sandy-Wroe]

They have classes in making Spanish-American sauces now?

[cazzz1975]

no, the clasp always works its way around to the front on mine

[sara3]

does it always go the same way, cazzz?

[ttfn]

Still no result sara? Tried posting in How It Worms yet?

[cazzz1975]

come to think of it it does slide down the right hand side

[beejay1124]

maybe in Belfast Sandy.
up here its classes in champ and soda bread

[sara3]

right, we need to get to the bottom of this, cazzz!

beejay, I love soda bread :o)
