Abstract:
A kit for making a string design comprising:a basemeans for indicating locations on said base for fixing pins in said base in holes to be made by said pins in said base, in a predetermined pattern of equally spaced pins in a line that includes outline by said pins of a loop,means for directing first wrapping of a string from a first pin at one part of the line of pins to a second pin at another part of the line of pins along a first direction of progression, spaced a plurality of pins in the first direction of progression from the first pin, adjacent to the last pin wrapped at said other part of the line to the side of the last pin that is in the first direction of progression, back and fourth in sequence of pin to spaced away adjacent pin, taking an acute angle about each of the pins, forming a layer of string having a first internal diameter of an arc in said loop, so that a first dense layer of string is formed,means for directing second wrapping of a string from a third pin at one part of the line of pins to a fourth pin at another part of the line of pins along a second direction of progression, spaced a plurality of pins in the second direction of progression from the third pin, adjacent to the last pin wrapped in said second wrapping at said other part of the line to the side of the last pin that is in the second direction of progression, back and fourth in sequence of pin to spaced away adjacent pin, taking an acute angle about each of the pins, forming a layer of string having a second internal diameter of an arc in said loop, so that a second dense layer of string is formed which extends over said first dense layer, exposing a portion of the first dense layer adjacent to an edge of the second dense layer forming a sculptured three dimensional shape with said first dense layer.
