These Restless Hands

Kayla Parker, 'These Restless Hands', animation loop, silent, 2012. My mother crochets a scarf. Her hands twist this way and that in her lap, looping the fluffy yarn around her crochet hook to create stitch after stitch. She is making a woollen scarf, for no one in particular. When she is finished, she will unravel all her stitches, and start again.
