I have always admired the work and musings of Thomas Edison, a well-known inventor and businessman. As a child, my family would go on trips to Greenfield Village in Michigan. This place is where I developed my love of history, knowledge, and even spinning. It’s a historical site where you can experience history in real life with enactments, historical costumes, and demonstrations from earlier life. One of my favorite places within the Village is a little workshop with the theme, Edison at Work. This is his Menlo Park complex where he made some of his greatest inventions. My experiences as a young child have stuck with me into adulthood and have helped to shape the person that I am today. A deep love of knowledge and creation gained from these experiences shows through in each of my designs. One of my most favorite parts of design is the math. I love to work out each calculation and am completely in my element. This design was particularly exciting for me with all of its sizing and shaping calculations. I hope you enjoy crocheting it as well as I enjoyed designing it. Have fun with the entire process!
