    Crochet is all about bringing different dimensions into being.

    That is, you take a single-dimension line, turn it into a 2D fabric, then you can keep going until you’ve made a 3D shape.

    It’s ridiculously easy to make something that looks just like an ocean coral or the brain’s neocortex, simply by repeating a short algorithm over and over again. The process has given me a deeper understanding of how the simplest patterns have been able to evolve into so many seemingly-complex designs across nature. It’s one thing to learn how they evolve, but it’s something else entirely to bring them about using your own hands.

    Math, science, art, nature, and magic - crochet is one with all.

    I love how I came across this as my partner was crochet knitting next to me on the couch. I showed her and she totally agreed.
