My rendering in Tunisian crochet of a 'Golden Ratio' (Fibonacci Sequence) graphic depicting how the days of the week feel from Monday (largest square) to Sat & Sun (smallest squares). Tricky to photograph - camera didn't like the colours & it is a rather large for flat lay photography. #phd #crochet
Tunisian crochet blanket depicting bright pink, yellow, olive, teal, turquoise, blue, and purple squares in decreasing sizes. The largest square is bright pink & represents how Monday feels. The next largest square is yellow representing Tuesday. The squares continue to shrink in size with the smallest, blue and purple, representing Saturday and Sunday. There is a curved black line that starts in the bottom right corner of the large pink square, which travels up and through the yellow, than down the olive, teal, over to the turquoise up through the blue and around and down, ending in the purple square.

And done...next on my hook...a Tunisian crochet blanket inspired by the 'Golden Ratio' (Fibonacci sequence). Also done...a favourable ethical opinion; now in the process of recruiting participants for my pilot study. 😊 #PhD #stressmanagement

So last week I received a favourable ethical opinion for my doctoral project. Delighted? Yes. A bit nervous? Yes. Below, a photograph of my latest 'untangle the knots in my brain' project. I anticipate crocheting through my yarn stash at an accelerated rate from here on out. 😆
Work in progress: multi-coloured striped crochet blanket on top of books and a computer keyboard.

Anyone else enjoy the look, feel, and scent of decades old books? This beauty was published in 1979. #phd #lifelonglearning
