The Reefers are hard at it again, constructing our wonderful hyperbolic crochet. The original Toxic Reef was curated by The Wertheims for their exhibition at The Smithsonian and we were left with no toxic reef at all.

We have posters, we have leaflets, we have a tight schedule for the coming week. We are Reefers and we have a Hyperbolic Crochet exhibition to set up.
Not sure how much crochet will actually be done around here for the next week or so…
Toxic hyperbolic crochet is about to peak very soon here as the exhibition of The Irish Reef is opening on Sunday 12th and the setting up of the reef will commence next weekend.

I went to see the Finals Exhibition at the IADT where [...]
When I completed The Fat Bowl made from Ingrid Wagner yarn I had this notion that the lovely chunky Álafoss Lopi from Ístex would be ideal for making more of these bowls. I set forth and got myself two balls of the good stuff and went to work with four strands of yarn. My intention [...]
I often wondered how I managed to become so deeply submerged in the woolly wonder of the Hyperbolic Crochet Coral Reef. The whole project has spoken to something deep inside of me from the word go. My free spirit, my love of the sea, my structured mind, my creativity, my sense of flow, my sense [...]
