See if you can figure out how she does it.

She's obviously distracting the audience with something...   ::)
My dog loves me for the person I try to be.  Either that or he's hungry.

It's called the thumb trick (or something like that). Look carefully at her right thumb when she's doing the hand waggle after the cloth 'disappears'.

Wonder why she didn't throw the hankerchief into the crowd when she was done?

The means to accomplish that trick is called a "thumb tip".  Pretty basic magic stuff.  Still, I had to watch the WHOLE act!


P.S.  You should see her act when she performs in Mexico.  Makes a whole donkey disappear!  :o
