crochet

Description

Crochet is the act of imprisoning yarn in endless loops with a tiny metal wand. Under the guise of a gentle hobby, it secretly hoards enough yarn to entangle your entire home. It implants the illusion called “the never-ending project,” employing sophisticated mind games that postpone satisfaction. Every time your fingertips get tangled, you lose track of time and reason. Ultimately, it produces not sustainable creations but unsustainable collections.
