lap full of fragments--or the sunk costs fallacy strikes again

You know how it goes.

​Of course you do:
it's a NEW PROJECT
alive with the thrill
​of beginning.

You do a bit of sampling--
(but not much).

After all,
​you've worked with these materials before--
(on a much smaller scale).

You know what's what--
(mostly). 
​
For sure they are
wonderful materials:
interesting, elemental,
and related ​to everything
​ you've been talking about
for months and months.

The hand spun linen is lovely,
though you're not positive you love
working with two strands.

-tap, tap, tap--

The warp-weft relationship
could be a little... different.

-tap, tap, tap--

You'll get used to it.

-tap, tap, tap--

Who is ever sure of anything?

-tap, tap, tap--

​This work could be
relevant,
and important.

-tap, tap, tap--

Besides,
it looks wonderful.

-tap, tap, tap--

Except,
that two strands 
of  white mill spun linen
is less pleasant
than the hand spun.  

-tap, tap, tap--

And  the half-assed attempt
to repeat the tape thing
you've done before?

-tap, tap, tap--

And oh,
there is a lot
of empty warp
up ahead.

-tap, tap, tap--

Now HUSH.
--tap--
You made a decision.
-tap--
It'll be SO COOL.
-tap--
​It'll BE FINE.
​-tap--

It'll be fine?

Did you hear that? 

Oh no
.
It'll be fine
is the kiss of death.

Does that mean you have to rip it out?
Nah.

-tap, tap, tap--

Really,
who wants to decide what to do
all over again?

It WILL  be fine.

-tap, tap, tap--

You go away for a week.
Come home. 
Weave a little more.

Sure is nice sitting at a loom.
If only...

Never mind that.
Go for a run.
Take off your shoes.
Wade through some muddy puddles.

Oh my, does this feel good.

Oh.
Right.

But I've woven so much.
And I LOVE how it looks.
And the waste.
And....

--SNIP, SNIP SNIP--

​Relief.
