RubyConf 2022: Crocheting & Coding: they're more similar than you think! by Tori Machen

Many of us have hobbies that we enjoy outside of our careers in tech. For me, that is amigurumi, the art of crocheting stuffed creatures. What if I told you that amigurumi is extremely similar to software development? Join me in exploring the intersection between crocheting amigurumi and developing software. We’ll look at the key similarities between these two crafts, and I’ll share how crocheting has helped me become a better software developer. You’ll walk away inspired to connect your own hobbies to your role in tech or find a new creative hobby (like crochet)!
