Urgent! A plea for volunteer crocheters for the next lace type project. Choi +Shine, the creators of the wonderful lace cap that floats over the Amsterdam canal are producing a new illuminated lace artwork that will be suspended at shoulder height over the Marina Bay in Singapore as part of I Light Marina Bay, Asiaâs Leading Sustainable Light Art Festival. The work will be called the Urchins and will consist of three huge sea urchins in what appears to be reticella lace but is actually large crochet. Jin Choi says, âAll the motifs will be assigned specific locations on the Urchins, so once completed, you will be able to locate your own work. Our deadline is the first week of Feb., but even a small contribution would be of great help for us.â Each motif should be 70cm x 70cm (roughly 2â-4â x 2â-4â) and they are worked with 3mm polyester rope with 5.5mm hook. They provide the pattern and the materials. Those who are interested in helping should contact [email protected] The company is located in the Boston area, so due to logistical reasons, the closer to Boston that you are, the better.
