There’s an old joke about being on a seafood diet. Well, here’s a… wait for it…. sewfood diet. I’ll see myself out.
Artist Kate Jenkins makes elaborate and adorably-detailed crocheted art. Her collection includes a series of seafood, anthropomorphic french fries and many others. See more of Kate’s work below and over at Instagram.

What is it about crocheted food that appeals to our eyes and bellies, and makes us miss grandma? This is never more true, than when it’s in the hands of an artist such as Trevor Smith.
Using a combination of brightly-colored yarns, wire and foam to shape his creations — Smith creates classic dishes with an ephemeral and Kodacrome-esque feel to them. Even the kitchen appliances Smith creates feel awesomely vintage. See more below and here.

Few things warm your insides on a budget, quite like instant ramen. Artist, Cynthia Delaney Suwito, gives us another reason to love the cheap noodles, by knitting with them.
Knitting Noodles, using the delicate ramen instead of more pliable yarn, acts as a reminder to take our time and to be patient. Although, not when it comes to eating ramen… because we want that in our belly right damn now!
