Look at this fabulous Gollum hat from Regina Rioux Gonzalez at Crochet Me. It's perfect for fans of fantasy novels. You can wear it and go about complaining of those nasty hobbitses that want your precious.
Want to sport a conversation piece that is as appropriate on the convention circuit as it is for a day of snowboarding? Well then, this hat's for you! Inspired by my favorite LOTR villain, this big-eared chapeau is worked up in warm wool Koigu and created entirely single crochet. Short rows are used to create a wrinkled brow, and easy construction techniques allow even the novice crocheter to tackle this wacky headgear with little problem. It's a satisfying project that is sure to turn heads.
The Institute for Figuring (via Craftzine) has a wild Crochet Hyperbolic Coral Reef display. They call the display a "celebration of geometry, handicraft and marine wonders." The image on the right shows crocheted "striated coral" made by Daina Taimina, with "brain corals" by Spring Pace.
The project is a collaborative one so if you want to contribute you can.
We invite crocheters everywhere to contribute models to the reef. This is a collective project and all contributors will be fully acknowledged online and in future exhibitions.
