Call for Crocheting a Reef

I told of crocheted and beaded hyperbolic planes before and gave there also links to the crocheted coral reef at The Institute For Figuring.
Now there’s also a museum in Germany that wants to construct such a coral reef from Januar, 13 until June, 9 2012 and that still looks for co-crocheters.
Have fun crocheting a coral reef ;-)

Tripling Yarn

Links of entry

Sometimes you have fine yarn that you want to work multistranded.
You can simply work from both ends of a skein to double it, if you want to triple it though, you simply must have three skeins – but only, if you don’t know how to triple the yarn very easily ;-))

Atomic Spectra Scarf Pattern Generator

Links of entry

Another wonderful idea for a generator: you let calculate the atomic spectrum of a desired chemical element and make a knitting pattern for a scarf from it (or a pattern for bead weaving, crochet etc.)!
The generator shows you then how many rows you must work for every colour.
I find this a great idea!

The picture has been calculated with the standard settings, I only made it broader to make it look more like a scarf ;-)

Why not take some pants to pieces between Christmas and New Year (or even somewhen else ;-)) and crochet a bowl from it? ;-)
