What is it about changing the world as it is
that fascinates creative people,
and why do people become obsessed with making
the things they make?
In this case, back about 50 years ago, someone crocheted
around a miniature rolling pin and then attached two cup hooks,
from which they dangled matching doilies
(Listed in my etsy shop).
It's a strange elaboration of a handsome, useful object-
the rolling pin- into a completely inutile one,
which can only be hung on the wall and admired after the maker
has finished with it.
Was this a kit?
Or did the maker come up with an original design?
Why?

More compelling obsession IMHO-
