@potterybyosa As you were writing this comment, a friend said that I should just use a thrift store doily. But that would just make me sad.
@nancylwayne There’s meaning in the process and labor. There’s something compelling about putting so much time into creating something just to give it up to the fire and let it burn away as part of the process. Idk, I think it’s great. Excited to see where this goes.

@potterybyosa Now I have to stop knitting that purple cardigan just so I can use my purple ceramic buttons I made, and get going on another round crocheted thing. I think I'll use cotton yarn instead of wool -- less fuzzy. We'll see (seems to be the community studio mantra)!

@potterybyosa And I've saved what you had to say and will toss it to everyone who tells me to just use a thrift store doily!

I taught myself crochet from lots of Youtube videos, just so I could use scrap wool yarn to make a round thing, soak it in slip, fling it onto a slump mold, and then turn it into a bowl-type thingy. (photos attached)
Lessons are being learned as I work through this process. I'm slowly inching towards success.
@nancylwayne looks great!!!

@nancylwayne wow. What happens to the fibres? Does it end up hollow?

Life's meaning is not found using a thrift store doily, but with a round crochet thingy.

@naught101 The fibers burn off during bisque firing and the remaining form is super fragile until it goes through a second high temperature kiln firing.
