Day 144 : Flow
Today's button really has a double name, as it looks a bit like a hat from the side, so the first thought was "Flo" as in Florence. But the sound works for both the pattern and the shape :)
This has been done using the ply split technique. Basically, you make up spun cords, then weave them. I used some small silk cords I had made for another project, weaving them together with another cord. If you are really clever at this technique, you can achieve some wonderful, dimensional items.
The woven shape is mounted onto a ring, and a couple of bullion knots hid a small gap....
Size: 20mm / 6⁄8" / 30L
