After many weeks of putting off my knitting, i decided to sit and just get it done. I had lost the enthusiasm to do it until now. Once complete i stitched the three pieces together using ribbon so that it remains the same material used throughout the piece. I intend this piece to be simply a sort of conceptual tapestry, rug. I look to use it in my installationa nd have my sculpture standing on it. This i hope will represent how all animals should be taken out of testing facilities and given a proper home.
When making this piece my beagle George took a liking to it and decided to lay on it and rub his body on it. I think that reaction from him was fantastic as he shows how happy and content his is at home in his own environment.
