Hyperbolic & Freestyle Crochet

Freeform Crochet begins where the pattern ends.

Your hook becomes a paintbrush, your yarn a palette of color and texture. As you learn to shape the fabric using basic crochet techniques, you gain the freedom to create intuitively, allowing your imagination to flow directly into every stitch.

Hyperbolic Crochet celebrates the intersection of geometry and handicraft.

Hyperbolic Crochet is a special style of Freeform Crochet. Residing equally in the realms of art, science, and math, these surfaces of negative curvature can be found in items throughout nature such as kelp, coral, and kale.
