As part of our alt craft month, we will be posting links to cool ideas and inspiration as well as tutorials and articles. We are still taking tutorial and article ideas for the month so please email your ideas and stories to me at whipup[at]gmail.com. what is ‘alt crafting’ anyway? Making unconventional choices (materials + methods); taking different approaches to the problem, not conforming to accepted rules or standards; out of the ordinary and unexpected; slightly odd or even a bit weird. – Yes indeed its going to be a month of FUN!

More interesting inspiration found via ravelry.

Wow! That beet is so realistic. Thanks for a great website, I really appreciate all the time you spend to show all the crafty goodness that I wouldn’t stumble across myself.

Oh, those make me want to pick up my knitting needles again! I know how to knit – learned YEARS ago – but when I learned to crochet, I stopped. However, these veggies are HARD to resist! LOVE this site! I check it daily & thank you VERY much for all the fun things you put up for your readers!
