Your Task
 Choose an object - big or small.
 Gather some yarn - yarn doesnt need to be
traditional wool; string, tape, wire, torn strips of
fabric can all be used as yarn in this context.
 Wrap it - think abstract, can you create other
shapes in or extending from your chosen object?
 Document your object - take lots of photographs or
draw it.
