A circular textile sculpture is formed from a tight coil of blue and green thread wrapped over linen and cork. Concentric rings graduate through shades of indigo, turquoise, and bright olive. Short segments of black and white wrap through the inner rings around a small central hole. A flat, white fabric band encircles the outer edge, secured with a small tab on our right side.
