When this odd-shaped piece is blocked, it will be a half-hexagon. One of the things I really liked about this sweater is all the non-standard pieces. The back looks like a tall truncated triangle with a split at the bottom to insert the godet (a simple triangle), the sleeves are elongated hexagons, and the fronts are half-hexagons. My geometry teacher would have been so proud.
Here's a close-up of the cabley action.
Assembling this beast is going to be a challenge. What fun!Speaking of beasts, I'm very glad I went out a little early to feed the critters this afternoon. Fifteen minutes after I came in, I looked out the window at a complete white-out. It had only been spitting snow when I fed the sheep...
Here too, I looked up and was Woah!!! where did *that* come from?!? Then looked around to see if the cat was outside.... he wasn't.
ReplyDeleteI love geometry, especially when I am making my own patterns. It's so logical!
It's going to look so cool when finished!
ReplyDeleteI love geometry! This is a very cool sweater - construction-wise. I can't wait to see all the pieces before you get the puzzle put together.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work! We had the whiteout in Burlington also. Glad it happened before I had to leave work for home. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful knitting! I can't wait to see it completed.
ReplyDeleteI was better at Algebra, which isn't saying much. I'm so impressed with your project monogamy. My coffee table is littered with projects, books, yarns, spindles and fiber as I flit from one to the other.
