Hey that's what happens every time I try to make the hat in Vanna White's Favorite Crocheted Gifts :rotfl

[MarvieN]

heh you think I'm joking? *g* I may be overstating it a teensy bit, but I sweat it's pretty similar lol. I'll try it again sometime and post pics *g*

Marvie!! :rotfl

 

Maybe you should try some reverse psychology ... try and do it on purpose, then maybe it'll be flat?? (I'm j/k, lol)

Another nifty thing: Visited a blog belonging to someone who commented on my last blog entry (Jewels -- I don't know offhand if she posts here, but she has a great blog with all kinds of fun links), and she linked to this: Mathematical crochet in someone else's blog, and there are all kinds of neat links there. The Klein bottle hat is too cool for words--I still can't wrap my brain around how that one works!

 

BTW, I totally can't look at the title of this thread without reading it as "More Greek Crochet" :hee

Hey Stacey - glad you're enjoying my blog things. Yah, that Kline bottle hat is "total geekdom" isn't it? I work with mathematicians at a university, so they get a kick out of all the geek crochet things I'm showing them. I want to attempt one of those hyperbolic planes...would make a cool decoration in my office (hanging by the dead plants)....LOL

Hey, you are here, cool!

 

I just love all that math-related crochet stuff. I don't always totally understand the concepts behind them, but it's just so cool...

(hanging by the dead plants)....LOL

I know what you mean. I think I have a black thumb these days!
