A lot of red threads.

Finished my abstracts.

Finished my abstracts.

The first two pieces I tried to work more with simple lines and forms. It was a reaction of the long slowly progress of the last work(last picture). But I like the figures of the third and already working on another two.
I find it very difficult to focus a long time at the same piece because then I start making mistakes specially when I have to count the stitches :)  So between the pieces I create some small gifts for my little shop.
To clear my mind and to build concentration.
Is this a strange way to work ?

  1. THese are great! I look forward to seeing the next two based on the last. I hate working on one piece at a time and find I need something going on the side to keep myself sane.

  7. mhm... is the counting imperative, d'you think?
    the first thing that pops to my mind when seeing these, is the meditative side of it. as i'm counting, a lot sometimes, when crocheting, i always find it winds me down. but of course, i allow myself mistakes, because they are inherent to hand work, and i often love the mistakes the most?

  9. Dear Mies,what a long time ago..i'm glad you love these..abstracts are difficult.I think you know :)
    So thx!

    Hi Nadine,at this work it's not imperative..I have to count to make it visual right. I like your questions :)I understand that if you see this you think about a meditave side but for me I can only work on this when I'm already at peace.
