I feel like posting a lot. This is my 3rd post today. OK, so this is what I am thinking. I am working on this pattern and I made it harder for myself than necessary. I intend to have 3 main versions with 30 variations from that. Uh... yeah. I could finish it up partway and let people test knit the charted mini version before I finish the rest.
The pattern builds on each level. It's just a bunch of triangles stacked on top of each other that get a little bit bigger and the little ones on the bottom have to be right.
I knitted up the mini version in the 1st place for instant gratification and that's a reason to let people knit it up. Then again I will be waiting quite a while for the larger knits to get done not just because they would get access later but because they just take longer to make. The largest version I did took more than 5 times the yarn that the mini did.
Yeah, I should probably hold off.
Well one thing I can say is that I'd like to see at least 2 versions of the mini. First would be the same as what I knitted up, 12 repeats across and 3 lace bands. I would love to see one with 4 lace bands and 10 or 11 repeats. I also love the idea of it being made of homespun yarn. I am happy to see some spinners interested in this because all of my version are of homespun.
