Artists Culture Crocheting Abstract Art Crochet

Crochet Coral Reef: A Project by the Institute for Figuring showcases the Wertheim sisters’ dazzling fusion of handicraft, marine science and environmental activism. This generously illustrated 2015 paperback walks readers through the global community art project that turns skeins of yarn into sprawling, living sculptures of coral ecosystems.

Christine and Margaret Wertheim guide hobbyists, art lovers and science buffs alike with clear instructions and vibrant photos that reveal how simple crochet stitches evolve into wildly colorful reef forms. Along the way, the authors weave in stories of women’s handicraft traditions, hyperbolic geometry, and ocean conservation, making the book equal parts how-to manual and cultural commentary.

Art-culture shelves, craft rooms, and STEAM classrooms all benefit from this visually rich volume. The copy offered here is in very good, unmarked condition—pages crisp, binding tight, and only a faint scuff on one corner—ready to inspire your own fiber-arts journey.
