granny's knitted Sweaters Used As Blankets For Shivering Crypto Developers
Posted on Thu 13 April 2023 in News
Silicon Valley, January 5, 2022 - Local blockchain startup founders were stunned to discover their shivering employees huddled under piles of homemade knitted sweaters. Upon further investigation, they found that the sweaters had been lovingly knitted by elderly grannies to keep cryptocurrency developers warm.
The grannies, who wished to remain anonymous, stated that they had become concerned for the health of developers after hearing reports of them spending days at a time glued to their screens monitoring crypto markets and solving complex coding problems. "We knew they must be freezing, so we organized a 'yarn bombing' campaign to keep them cozy," the grannies said in a joint statement.
Over a dozen grannies volunteered their time and yarn to create the sweaters, donating them as gifts to spread warmth and encouragement. "Those poor dears work such long hours trying to build new technologies and innovations. We just wanted them to know we appreciate their efforts," one grandmother commented.
The startup founders expressed their gratitude towards the thoughtful grannies, saying that the surprise sweater gifts would help keep their teams going through many late nights and cold nights to come. "Crypto developers may build new systems, but grannies have real heart," mused one husband and wife co-founder team.
Though an unconventional show of support, the grannies' yarn bombing has brought smiles to the faces of those often lost in screens and codes. The sweaters will stand as a poignant reminder of compassion in the midst of Silicon Valley competition and chaos. The grannies' kindness has warmed the Valley in more ways than one.
