Hello! Did you know that today was International Crochet Day?
In honor of the day, I created a fun little photo gallery for you of people crocheting all over the world….
Tasmania, by Never Knew
Morocco, by XenaDog08
Rwanda, by Revafisheye
Mumbai, India, by Nick Harris1
Ecuador, by HAKANU
Kyrgyzstan, by Venerata Noce di Cocco
South Africa, by Lauren Barkume
I must admit, what started out as a fun, heartwarming round up became a cathartic exercise for me.
By the end of gathering these photos for us, I was all teary. It is such a balm to the soul to see people from all over creating good things after a day like yesterday.
I hope this inspires you in some way, too.
I know it’s inspired me to make sure I get some photos of me actually doing my creative work, rather than always being the one behind the camera.
Much love to you!

So, so beautiful. Thanks, Elizabeth.
This doesn’t compare to what you shared above, but I thought you might appreciate the crocheted bicycle dress guards I blogged a while back — see take #4 here:
