We kind of hit on nuts and bolts things this week, starting with the knitting. It's a bit to literal, set the scene a bit more. Also the impulse to use the lamp as a pointer was great, and that middle bit of the image is the strongest and doing all of the work where the edges just kind of fall off. The rest of the image needs to match the intention of that lamp. 

Watch your edges don't let them ruin your image

Think more about what you are saying/ how much weight you are giving to the red. 

We also talked a great deal about the bed image and how it's a great impulse and is on to something it just needs to be tweaked. (keep the feet, the feet are good) The figure carries the same emotional nexus as you have been talking about.
