English House professors have noticed that our students are crafting their way through their Zoom classes. By no means a distraction, but instead a way to focus and stay happy—in and out of class, students are fighting stress with arts-and-craftiness. This gallery of “Covid Crafts” is a celebration of the power of the creative and of the importance of the “sister arts.”
