Step 1: Apply a layer of blue acrylic paint on the wood panel with a wide synthetic paintbrush. Apply as many coats as needed to achieve a uniform and opaque surface.

Step 2: Determine a geometric pattern and mark the points with your pencil on the surface of the wood panel.

Step 3: Hammer the nails into the chosen spots, leaving the nail head sticking out by at least half a centimetre.

Step 4: Attach a piece of yarn to a nail and stretch the string between the nails to create lines and geometric patterns.

Step 5: Alternate yarn colours and concentrate in certain areas to create the final composition.

To test the pattern, draw it first on a large sheet of paper and connect the dots with a pencil and a ruler.
