I read the title wrong and thought this was a bug backpack. That would be so cool too

Your giant sculpture inspired me to elongate a millipede pattern I found until it was 2.5m long. Nowhere’s near as big as yours but I loved making it. I love crochet and I love bugs, so your work is right up my alley 🪲

I know this video is literally a year old now, but I just came across your whole bug display thing for the first time and I am OBSESSED. Absolutely obsessed. You did such a wonderful job, and I love seeing the crochet community grow in the way/what we create! Would you consider making patterns for smaller versions (or similar) to what you did? I would seriously love to make some bugs to hang on my wall that weren’t massive lol, though I’d love massive ones too😂
