The Crochet Crowd says “In the next step of the Crochet Mandala Series, you will advance now to start doing 2 Tog Stitches which form clusters. You will also start doing chains where other stitches sit on top of to form beautiful gap spaces. You will also do a neat, eat to crochet border. Get the written pattern at: https://goo.gl/NQcX2M.”

According to TED.com: “Can we, as adults, grow new neurons? Neuroscientist Sandrine Thuret says that we can, and she offers research and practical advice on how we can help our brains better perform neurogenesis—improving mood, increasing memory formation and preventing the decline associated with aging along the way.”
“Sandrine Thuret studies the way adult brains create new nerve cells in the hippocampus — a brain area involved in memory and mood.”
“In her lab at King’s College London, Sandrine Thuret studies adult neurogenesis — the process by which adult brains create new nerve cells. (Until the 1990s, we didn’t even know they did this!)”
“Thuret’s work focuses on the hippocampus, the area of the brain that is related to memory, and her work asks two big questions: How can we help our healthy brains create new nerve cells throughout our lives, through diet and behavior changes? And how can we study the effects of diseases such as depression and Alzheimer’s on our brains’ ability to grow?”

For those of you not familiar with TED Talks here is a brief summery from www.ted.com: “TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader. Along with two annual conferences — the TED Conference in Long Beach and Palm Springs each spring, and the TEDGlobal conference in Oxford UK each summer — TED includes the award-winning TEDTalks video site, the Open Translation Project and Open TV Project, the inspiring TED Fellows and TEDx programs, and the annual TED Prize”
The Crochet Crowd says “In this tutorial, we expand from the beginner rounds to now trying some new steps. We will introduce back loops, small shells, large shells, long single crochet and refresh on invisible joins. Get the written pattern here: https://wp.me/p62XOi-7nl”
