When doing some research I came across this piece, I was captured by this piece because of its form. This got me thinking of ways that I can get my flat samples to appear to have more form and three dimensional shape. I thought that this could be through adding wire into my samples afterwards, or even bedding wire into my knit samples or knitting with a yarn that will hold its shape.

In the below photo I have embedded wire into my knit sample, so that it enables me to when cast of, start to manipulate its shape and form. This I feel is working very well, especially contrasting this with ripple on the domestic, as it makes to linear marks look as if they are swaying, though this is just the wire moving them.
