mirabilis baby blanket

Mirabilis Baby Blanket
A spiral-tastic baby blanket!  Alternating between stockinette stitch and simple fishnet lace, this blanket grows in the form of a logarhythmic spiral, or "spira mirabilis".

Spirals like these occur in nature as the arms of cyclones, the paths of hawks to their prey and moths to light bulbs, and the nerves of the cornea.
