Fibo-optic

Create the stunning Fibo-optic Afghan from our comprehensive booklet of knitting instructions. This mesmerizing piece utilizes the Fibonacci Sequence in two directions across all three dimensions to create the visual illusion of a large, floating cube. Though primarily designed as an afghan, its versatility allows it to function beautifully as a wall-hanging or floor rug, ensuring its captivating design is always on display.

Don't be intimidated by the complexity of this design; it's much easier to knit than you might imagine! If you can knit basic garter stitch, you can successfully craft this eye-catching piece. While some of the smaller sections may be a bit fiddly, they are well within the abilities of even relatively inexperienced knitters. The Fibo-optic Afghan requires just two main colors of yarn, giving you the freedom to choose any type you desire. Keep in mind that a very thin yarn will result in a smaller-sized afghan, while a thicker yarn will create a larger version. Our detailed instructions guide you on how to achieve subtle shading that adds dimension to the front, side, and bottom of the cube for an enhanced visual effect.

In addition to the two primary yarn colors, you'll need finer yarns in white, light grey, and medium grey for the color gradients. This blend of hues will contribute to the afghan's overall depth and sophistication. Designed by the talented duo Pat Ashforth and Steve Plummer, this pattern is not only a rewarding project but also a striking piece of art that will elevate your knitting skills.

Whether you're an experienced knitter looking for a new challenge or a newcomer eager to learn, the Fibo-optic Afghan promises to be an engaging and enjoyable project that showcases your creative flair. Start crafting today and transform your space with this stunning geometric design!
