Practicality and curiosity initially inspired this piece. I wanted
a portable project using many colors: this led me to choose #3 pearl cotton
threads. I also wanted to experiment with a fabric from interconnected
crochet rings: I would make my entire piece of rings. I decided on these
aspects before the theme of the challenge was announced. The nature theme
and the texture of interconnected rings led me to water: the movement of waves
is echoed in the flexibility and texture of the fabric. And water is
interconnected with everything in our world. I began with the water and
planned to make a strip of water with a beach of rings, but then I went on a
beach vacation: the sand wasn't ring-y, and the bay was glorious!
Plans are made to be changed.
