Below I have shown my main sample in some more detail, explaining the technicalities of the piece and the different elements that make it up. This piece is entirely created from excess material, surplus yarns and deconstructed knits from second hand stores, therefore some information about the yarns and wools used is unknown. I have adapted to this by comparing the size of the yarn to the product it was made from or was before.
Grey/silver plyed – old scarf, medium thickness, about 3mm width, 11 WPI (Wraps Per Inch)
White thick yarn – from scarf made up of garter knit stitch, about 9mm width, 2WPI
Off white yarn – old hat from charity shop, 4mm width, 8WPI
*This measurements or not exact and have been conducted from home.

This looks like a wonderfully tactile piece which I woudl just LOVE to get my hands on. Have you considered photographing it on a body or from different angles to emphasise the texture and 3D qualities of it? These images are all straight on taken from above. Using different methods of lighting to photograph textiles can also be really effective.
