So lovely.
Sewing is an alien art for me, I envy you. I won't start now, but I see this as a wonderful Taoist case study!
Let the material decide how it wants to be treated. The knot is my external will, clumsily imposed on the thread; the friction loop is the inner nature of the thread, gracefully doing what it does, skillfully aligned with my needs.
I love the drawing too!
