**Additional Information:**
Did you know I recently crocheted one of the world's longest scarfs? My black and white beauty weighs 75 pounds and stretches over 500 feet! My dream is to find a public space, like a museum or airport, to display it and inspire others (both in chess and crochet!).
Think you can help? Contact me!
See you on the virtual chessboard!
