We can imagine our community knitted together by a network of strands. Photo: Photo: this lyre lark / flickr CC.

Beth Allen considers the nature of community

by Beth Allen 24th May 2013

Occasionally, when I am working with a group on the nature of our community, I give out balls of knitting wool and ask people to pass a strand of wool to someone they know, who then passes it on to someone else, who passes it on to yet another person… and so on. Together we make a visible picture of our relatedness in a web of wool.
