and I decided to try some experimental weaving to interpret it in fibres/textile. So I took a mesh bag that held oranges last week, and some wool I bought for 50 cents at the op shop, and some dyed string in small pieces from the dyeing I did last year where I had to cut the string off the pole-wrap shibori because I couldn't undo the knots; also a bit of tapestry wool from a bag of them also from the op shop. I love recycling and everything in this is - or in fact upcycled, made into something better instead of languishing in the back of a cupboard. Here is the result -
