The Knitting Spectrum
On one hand you have a knitted piece of Christmas poo, and on the other you have knitted mathematical representations of hyperbolic space. And I like both of ’em!

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

I’ve seen that hyperbolic space model before — it’s incredible. I think I found the article when researching my knitting star chart lithographs. Much fun!

I HAVE SENT THE SNOOK. THE SNOOK IS ON THE CASE.
Damn. He found it… but it’s for some kids’ summer camp thing. They’re all sitting around it. It’s not an official TAR clue box. The Snook was soooo ready to be a Fern though…
Those hyperbolic space make me hoping i can knit 🙁
The poo was…disturbing. But interesting. My kids would love to make that! It looks like Deputy Doo Doo in Captain Underpants!
ooooh, they stole all that stuff from CRAFT: magazine… or maybe it’s just something in the air.
You can down load the pattern from the Bristol uni website.
