You might be interested in what's going on on my blog Knit and Crochet Pattern Chat. I have pictures and updates on my latest crochet pattern project called the Lorenz Manifold.

See it here: Knit and Crochet Pattern Chat.

Update:  This project didn't work for me and was trashed.  I just couldn't figure out how to shape it with the wires, etc. that they suggested to use.  I even had my engineer husband to help and guess what's needed is a mathematical brain not a creative brain!  LOL

At least I enjoy crocheting the whole thing, had the extra thread and didn't mind throwing it out.  They say even Picasso didn't paint a masterpiece every time.

If you google Lorenz Manifold, you'll see the people that were able to finish the project.
