The Yellow and White Model **

This continues on from 4/16/2014  "the latest seashell models"

The Mathematics --includes to 144 stitches, as in the yellow and white model.

The result (1)

Oh dear,  it looks a bit funny!   This time the top was stitched close to upper rows instead of to lower down.
Just goes to show what happens when one tries anything.  These models took days and days and days!  Sheer determination just to try to get a Pattern together.  When all of this is done, the Garden might get some attention.  But there is a lot more that's not yet published..........  I only get to electricity and Internet one or two days a week.  A nice motel is where I go;  sometimes to a friend's home,  or to library in town 20 km away from home.

Later Update    22/8/2014

The result (2):-

 This one looks much better!  It is stitched up quite differently, with a back stitch,   and not so close to the top,  easing down from the very top, padding as we go.

The same is done with a model which was a disaster back in 19/3/2012 in "On the trail of the fibonacci snail".  It had been impossible to sew up, being too bulky near the tip.
This new way of sewing it up from the tip down works well:-

Therefore the old post is being edited and improved.  It feels good when something better results.
The maths here are for 233 and 144 stitch rows!

The next photo of a real big old seashell has a similar form,  and I look forward to trying to make it.
