As you begin,

given form.
For a while,
the mind can step aside.
Simply move your hands.
Start from here.

This is not a finished Object.
We ask people to make it themselves,
because the time you spend with your hands
is more important than the object you end up with.
it’s a small act – for someone you care about.
Mindful making, from Kyoto.
Slow your hands, clear your mind.
