It's time to come back

Last fall I joined two group son Ravelry - the Harry Potter Knit & Crochet House Cup and Fantasia. For the last three months, these groups have gotten me going on a small treasure trove of crochet projects. Several are math related.

My favorite is a mobius strip grown big and turned into a shawl/cowl (aka scowl). I've finished one and almost completed the second. The whole thing is supposed to represent something I love and is full of things to represent numbers (Fibonacci numbers, prime numbers, golden mean).

Here are a couple of pictures (the model is my gorgeous niece).

I have a second one almost completed in a beautiful silk/merion blend from Malabrigo. It's my sister's gift and she chose the yarn.

Great post, I admire the writing style :) A little off topic here but what theme are you using? Looks pretty cool.

secutity equipment - yes, the post was off topic. I go there on a semi-regular basis so I've started a separate site for my crochet designs and projects.

I really don't remember which theme I started with, but I do know that I fiddled with the html code.
