'There is an affinity between the enmeshed experiences of craft and uncertainty. As discussed above, craft involves a degree of dwelling in problems. Uncertainty is often experienced as a crippling and debilitating state of limbo, affecting one’s ability to move or imagine a future (Bock 2017; Horst and Grabska 2015). At the same time, uncertainty requires learning to solve problems or “get by” and “make do” (Berthomé, Bonhomme, and Delaplace 2012). It necessitates creating and “crafting” opportunities and resourcefully piecing together styles, influences, and skills (Johnson-Hanks 2005; Schilling et al. 2015). Uncertainty is thus about tuning into and moving through a continually changing environment, working with different forms of resistance, and deploying incremental practices. Both craft and uncertainty therefore depend on pausing and navigating in order to reconstitute relationships and open possibilities for other futures (Yarrow and Jones 2014).'
