Notes

The idea of this cardigan has visited me first when I’ve seen (2 years ago) some pictures of a strange cloud - resembling DNA helix - above Moscow (see bottom pic, AND: it’s not a hoax, nor Photoshop). Those clouds were there right on my birthday, - so I considered it as a kind of heavenly bounty, quite impressive and inspiring.

ps: just try to imagine my amazement, when I finished my details (collar and pockets) and then saw a nano-picture (pic. B - on the right) of a self-assembled DNA structure on wiki!
There must be something in the air!

Oh, I’m still looking for some really nice (contrasting) buttons.

The charts for all of the three aran/cables that I’ve used for my cardigan are available on Ravelry (as free-patterns), just look above - at the section ‘incorporates’ - and follow the given links.
