Zann Carter
Terre Haute, IN USA
I am just getting started with
freeform work after years of thinking, dreaming, stash-building and working
with others' patterns. I'm not sure why this is so - I think there must
be (for me, anyway) underlying issues of self-confidence or risk-taking.
There's also the issue of actually using The Stash!
I could write a whole essay on that -- the mantra 'it's only yarn' is very
helpful.
But never mind the
psychology of freeforming and yarn hoarding -- this challenge was just plain
fun! I loved gathering up a basket of yarn for each piece and contemplating the
Elements. While I had a general idea of what I wanted to do at the
start, the final form of each piece evolved as I worked.
The best part of
creating these pieces was what I learned from them.
