Researching the ten plagues and sorting out how to execute them was the principal challenge of the Knitted Seder project. As I worked my way through them I explored materials (including plastic bag yarn, or “plarn” - for blood, lice and hail) and techniques (including felting for the origami-knit frog), and strategies of representation, from the most playful (the hail-cloud), or costume (mask of darkness), to realistic (afflicted cow and locust).
