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.

Sweater

This is a sweater for me. It took me forever to get around to weaving in the ends. LOL

Sunday

Today the erstwhile housemate baked one of his "better than sex" chocolate cakes. It had a dual purpose - to celebrate my youngest nephew's 9th birthday (we missed that because I had a migraine) and to make my sister feel better (the oldest nephew got terminally stupid and wrecked her car). I think the cake did its job. LOL

Before the cake, my sister and BIL took me to Wally World so I could get some yarn and buttons I need to finish the two hooded sweaters for the Pixie's boys. When they're done this week, I'll post some pictures.
