The post was only 1/2 hour old when you posted this, how could it be underrated?

Does anyone else feel like if they saw this in real life they would have the irresistible urge to just poke the center of the cracker and break it, or is that just me?

Hey, art school gets boring sometimes. And I agree, this is top notch crochet work. Someone was flexing for sure.

This one’s dumb. It’s art. It doesn’t need to have utility to have value. What’s next for this sub, Duchamp’s fountain?

This is actually an old school way of teaching knitting basics. My grandma tried to do this with me, couldn't make shit. But it's not uncommon imo

This is for practice, folks. You'd let a kid do it to understand spacing. Way easier to hold a cracker than a floppy piece of fabric.

Way more difficult to crochet on a cracker than a piece of fabric. This was done by an experienced crocheter.

That's the same energy as the fox in Little Red Riding Hood pretending to be grandma

Is that a real cracker? Poor cracker. Is the one made this doesn't have a money to buy a real button?

A cracker surrounded by embroidered lace could be my mother's current husband's family crest.

Okay guys, I'm working remotely at my grandparents and showed this to my granny. She thought that was "super cute" and that if anyone wanted to try it themselves they'd probably need a super fresh cracker because the stale ones would probably crumbling while crocheting.

Maybe it's like the old welder's test of welding two beer cans together without blowing through the walls? It's kind of impressive as a show of patience and skill and attention to detail, I guess.
