A Job That Is Still Theirs: Sorting the Soft Things
A basket of soft, familiar fabric to sort by feel. One picture, three steps, and no way to do it wrong.
A Job That Is Still Theirs: Sorting the Soft Things
A basket of soft, familiar fabric to sort by feel. One picture, three steps, and no way to do it wrong.
The job
- Take one soft thing out of the basket.
- Smooth it flat across your lap.
- Set it on the pile beside you.
There is no order to get right and no pile to finish. Being handed something useful to do is the whole of it.
What goes in the basket
- Two or three flannel shirts, buttons already undone
- A wool scarf
- Warm towels from the dryer
- A soft blanket square
- One thing that is theirs specifically — a cardigan, a shawl
