recently, i've been doing a lot of crocheting.
and when i crochet, i usually listen to music. but the other day, i did not. and so my mind wandered, as it is often prone to do.
and i got to thinking, "hmm, you know, i bet a piece of crocheted work could totally be used as a secret map." (i've always had a very active imagination)
the number of stiches in the same row, or the number of same colored yarn stitches in a row, could signify the number of steps you need to take. you could figure out which direction to walk in based on either the color of the yarn (supposing you knew which color corresponded to which direction) or if there were any charms or anything else attached to it as a clue.
i havent really thought out all the details yet, but the possibilites seem almost endless.
it'd make a great "secret" map because few would suspect it to be a map. most would probably just assume that it was some craft project gone horribly wrong.
anyways, i just thought it was a cool idea and thought i would share it :)
