Zealanders Lissy and Rudi are on a crochet mission! The husband and wife team have embarked upon a 3D project of a staggering scale – they plan to create a wharenui, or traditional M ori meeting house, entirely covered in crochet. The ‘build’ will take them many months, and is designed to celebrate M ori culture.
