Check out these incredible fiber artists and their new work. Inspiration perhaps by traditional Turkish arts and crafts and, nature, freeform crotchet , and some by Indian beadwork designs. I love the organic quality to most of these and how they seem to grow around the neck or evolve from a lapel. Wish I had any talent in the knitting or crotchet department, but alas my mother could never teach me. Instead she would just create elaborate scarves and tell me she had no idea how they ever were made.
This first group is by irregular expressions
love how these are all so dainty and delicate little clusters
These next ones are incredible too, and are made by artist madame ulani
these next two beaded necklaces are by ambrosian beads
here's some that I found that I don't have sources or links too...
WOAH! SO awesome.. I wish I had the patience to make something like these! Thanks again for the paper doll!!!!!!!

I found your blog through googling "free form crochet green" :-)
I love this! Thank you for sharing the ideas, images, inspiration...
BTW, did you find the paper dolls with liver blood dyed clothes? If not, what about trying to recreate them or something similar?
