and
THE INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF THE SHARK 2009
http://www.year-of-the-shark-2009.org/

so let's combine them by .....
knitting a cool woollen fluffy dice in the shape of lil'sharks. ...aww then we can hang them off our car mirrors. Now to add the astronomy hmmm?
Then drive our cars off a cliff when we realise we're into astronomy. :P

ps kidding...I love astronomy

[lily.]

We could knit sharks and planets and fashion a windchime-like device (except it wont chime, on account of the planets and sharks being made of wool).



In retrospect, that wasn't a great idea.
