Knitting Narratives: Making Data Visible Through Craft

Knitting Narratives: Making Data Visible Through Craft

Celebrate Love Data Week by joining our knitting circle and exploring how stitches can tell stories. This interactive workshop introduces knitting as a creative form of data visualization, where patterns and colors represent information in tactile, meaningful ways. Inspired by the concept of temperature blankets, we’ll design quilt squares that transform datasets into visual narratives, making data something you can see, touch, and share. Come discover how craft and data intersect to create artful representations of knowledge. Knitting supplies will be provided.
