Scoubidou

About this book

"What is Scoubidou? (Say "skoo-bee-doo".) First it was a French pop song. In 1958 "Scoubidou," the song, was such a huge hit that singer Sacha Distel became known as Mr. Scoubidou. Legend has it that one night a group of adoring fans got into his hotel room and gave him a doodad they had made out of wire insulators. They called int a scoubidou in his honor. Nowadays, scoubidou is the name for the hollow, plastic cord that [may come] with this book. All over the world, people use it to make bracelets, lanyards, key fobs, backpack danglers, and more. An online search of the word scoubidou will bring up more photos of some outrageously complex and time-consuming projects. The projects in this book , on the other hand, are relatively easy and quick, perfect for scoubi newbies." -- T.p. verso.
