Produced by a special needle, this magic tattoo is composed of intersecting bands that loop into and out of one another.

This tattoo was first spotted upon the legs of a chatty child at a seaside birthday party. The local tattooist, also the celebrant’s mother, had run out of party favors and mistakenly applied an experimental but harmless (or so they assumed) tattoo they had designed. This was done in consultation with the child’s parents who assumed it was a tattoo that would temporarily allow their child to walk on water. Needless to say, the child was not able to walk on water.
