I love many of the string art patterns, but I would never make them, because I find them on the other side quite old fashioned.
\nAlthough the I thought that I could use the pattern to create a card.
\nI pricked the holes of the Starburst pattern<\/a><\/del> Starburst pattern<\/a> (template here<\/a><\/del> template here<\/a>) from The Art of Thread Design<\/a><\/del> The Art of Thread Design<\/a> into my cardboard and measured the length of thread. About 8m (about 26 feet ;-)). Then I started to weave the thread through the holes. I hadn’t finished the first two stitches when my thread became a firm knot. Totally entangled. Absolutely un-detangable.<\/p>\n

Therefore I had to try something else with new thread.
\nI thought (what I should have done beforehand ;-)) that in string art they use pegs (nails) to fix the thread at the predefined points. Then I realised that I could have a kind of pegs too: if I weave the thread over and under the holes (from hole 1 to hole 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4 etc) and back, I get a coloured frame where the holes are, I get pegs, because one thread goes from the front side to the back side and vice verso (see picture<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Now I could wrap the thread around my self-made pegs just in the same way they are doing it in string art around the nails.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed working on the Starburst pattern, but at one end it is very narrow and I only could use two layers in place of three.<\/p>\n
