The yarn-hungry process of knitting a 5' diameter circle made the various colors accumulate in narrow bands which reminded me of layers of rock "telling" geological time. So the embellishments represent organisms from various parts of the fossil record: agnathans, bryozoans, crinoids, gastropods, a shonisaurus, a dragonfly, a gingko leaf, a sea star, and a trace fossil. Mother turtle occupies the center of the circle.
