Note on Gauge: “To preserve the geometry of the manifold one needs to ensure that the horizontal width of the used stitch and its length are in the same ratio as the average distance between mesh points on a level set and the width of the respective band. The crocheting reader will be relieved to hear that these considerations were translated into the crochet instructions below | simply following them slavishly will give a good result.”
