Spiral Jetty
On the northeastern shore of the Great Salt Lake lies a massive unique sculpture by Robert Smithson entitled Spiral Jetty - a fifteen hundred foot long coil of crystals and rock.
Spiral Jetty is a colorful pixie bonnet, worked flat from brim to nape. Stretchy one by one ribbing forms the band, and a strip of stranded color work spirals add interest to the body.
Spiral Jetty is a quick and easy project for intermediate knitters. Requires familiarity with stranded color knitting.
