The story behind this pattern:

In Sync

I have always wanted to do synchronized swimming. It seems wonderful to be able to dance together so perfectly in the
water.

As a child, I tried to imitate it: floating on my back — hop, one straight leg with its pointed toe up in the air. Or a handstand underwater, turning on my hands. I loved it.

And today? Secretly, I still dream of it. And when no one is watching at the pool, then — hop — my straight leg shoots up into the air, with its pointed toe… Just for a moment.

Do you ever do that too, when no one is watching?
