Tension

A prose poem about chronic pain, knit in one continuous line of text. The text is knit using stranded color work. The knit object is approximately 8,000 stitches across and 8 rows high. The project is one of temporal duration, and has thus far taken 150 hours and counting. When finished, the knit ribbon will curl in on itself, becoming its own sort of cord with which one could knit or crochet any number of other shapes. A work in progress.

Materials: white cotton yarn, black cotton/wool blend yarn.
