Just finished this super chunky beast of a hat; I’m madly in love with super chunky wool.
Weaving Neuroscience and Art Together
What’s that? Wooden brains aren’t enough for you? Ok, since you can’t get enough, here’s some amazing knitted brain art. These are real fMRI scans and anatomical studies translated into yarn and woven into rugs!
There’s actually a whole mini-museum for this stuff, appropriately titled “The Museum of Scientifically Accurate Brain Art”. Best “weaving” of science and art since these math-inspired creations of New Mexico artist Donna Loraine Contractor.
Even more: Here’s some yarn playing tricks on your brain, via “Illusion Knitting”.

Gosh, these are lovely!

I was just thinking about how bored I was, and as if by magic, someone showed up at my front door with four bin liners full of machine knitting wool.
Bless you, craft fairy.

BIG yarn… BIG needles.
This is like a porn, but for craft lovers.
Do you like yours big and pointy?

I’m knitting on five needles!
This feels slightly mad; even madder since I’m hugging a water bottle and having chocolate for breakfast.
