Notes

There were 40g of the black/grey variagated wool left over after the thunderous sky socks of six years ago. Not enough to make an adequately sized decay but clearly sufficient for a large contribution to one. I’m making it up as I go along.

Finished. The decay sections have the look of scattered lights in a night sky. The dots were supposed to give the idea of the reverse of holes. The last section, which is probably technically some form of faggotting, was to show a fabric consisting entirely of eyelets. And I wanted purple maggots along the long edge having carefully arranged it so there were none along the shorter edge. Was worried about whether the disparate elements would work together or not - they’ve turned out ok, at least, and I love the decay sections.
