For some reason, this looks like a food to me. It's also the wildest crochet coral reef piece I've ever seen--I love all of them and this one is extra lovable. From MsGaia.
Crochet coral reef or food?
I can't even begin to think of a title for this
Very cool--from Julia Laing--a wonderful set of pictures.

Crochet cat
The whole encyclopedia thing made me look for other encyclopedias, and I found an entry by Patti Haskins on the Encyclopedia of Crafts, a 70s series of books I did not know but that apparently is kind of retro kitsch cool, and then I looked at her flickr and found this which I like.

Dollhouse sofa
I love this, with all the little pillows, part of more dollhouse furniture shown on craftster.
Giant knitted rabbit
It's on a hillside in Italy and can be seen from space! Knitted by, apparently, grandmothers, although I don't know if that was an underlying requirement, that they be grandmothers, it's 200 feet long and 20 feet high and will be up there until 2025. From Telegraph, a British newspaper.
Q-tip lamb
How cute is this?! I saw it on a craftster post, and she has a link to the instructions on crafts-for-all-seasons.com
