Mandalas for Marinke is a collaborative crochet art project. People have sent in so many beautiful contributions, and I’ve been posting them almost daily (although I took some time off in December because it was such a busy month). Each post includes the mandala, any messages the maker shared, and some depression awareness raising information. Here’s a roundup of the posts that went live on the blog in December and January, in case you missed any … or just want to enjoy seeing them all in one place!
Today’s contribution to the Mandalas for Marinke project comes from someone I believe wanted to remain anonymous.

This pretty crochet mandala that builds outwards in color from light pink to dark pink, through purple then green, comes to us from Christina Federici of TinasToastyToes.
