It explore the avoidance of grief through a woman's addiction to knitting. It's dedicated to her mother, and was an opportunity to explore her own avoidance of grief after her mother's death in 2024. Gertie refuses to acknowledge the grief caused by her husband's death and instead distracts herself by knitting. But as reminders of her past surround her, her knitting escalates until she isolates herself in a cocoon of yarn, where she is trapped until she finally confronts her grief.
