The Pink Thing

Pattern for Sale!

I'm working on something I call The Pink Thing. Or TPT for short, which makes me feel like I'm sticking my tongue out at it, which is often what I feel like doing. At any rate, last night I seamed one shoulder and realized that I had made some sort of faux Möbius strip. Seaming the front right shoulder to the left back shoulder will do that, I guess.

I came up with the ribbing pattern when playing around with Fibonacci numbers while I was in Germany. My needles got taken by a really upset ticket agent in Stuttgart, so I wasn't able to cast on until I got home. That's when I decided to add the staggered mock cables. (Thank you, Mr. Aerospace's parents, for Walker's book with said mock cable pattern in it.)

Update!
TPT is done! I have more photos, including dog photos, too.

This photo shows TPT in a relaxed state (no flash, color slightly off, but not too bad).

This photo shows how it wears when you actually move (I was calling the dog over).
