Default What is this?

Does anyone know what this is? It's most likely not quilting related, I don't think.

It looks like one of those gizmos you invert and shove into a downspout to catch debris. What are the dimensions?

Does it have a brand name anywhere on it? That would give you a starting point.

It's completely open so it wouldn't catch anything. It's about 2.5" in diameter.

Is it something that you would make preemie baby yarn hats from? Will be watching this post to see what that gadget is.

Reminds me of those cat toys where a ball runs around in a track.

No, it's light plastic and thin wire.
