January 17, 2004Whada you think?It only took, well, about two hours, but I have a chart for the white squares. I started with a base desing of four swirls and then added four more. I had two ideas - one with straighter, even swirls,* and one with more freeform, curvier swirls.** You'll have to sort of imagine the borders being filled in a little bit better, and the colored line was for me to mark my border area for symetry with the other pattern. All of the marks are yarn overs, so it will be lacy. Which do you prefer? *Messing with the chart made some of the marks go away. Imagine that the "up" and "right" arms also have marks, evenly spaced like the "right" and "left" arms. **There are a few missing marks here, too. They're in the swirl that comes out "straight" to the left and "straight" down. Imagine a few more dots in the middle of the arm, spaced evenly like the others in the row, but a touch lower, to give them the same curve as the "up" and "right" arms.

Both equally beautiful. I prefer the more free-form one, but the other might be better if the pattern of the squares is more symetrical. Posted by: Alison at January 18, 2004 08:08 PM |
