The afghan in the photos was made in DK yarn but the pattern includes instructions for making it in any yarn of your choice, and for changing the size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grid is optional. It merely shows the mathematical idea more clearly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe afghan demonstrates where \u003cem\u003etriangular numbers\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003esquare numbers\u003c\/em\u003e coincide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA triangular number is the result of adding \u003cem\u003ecounting numbers\u003c\/em\u003e. A square number is the result of multiplying a number by itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eExample\u003c\/em\u003e: Triangular: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 36 Square: 6 x 6 = 36\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe answers in this example coincide. The afghan shows where the 49th triangular number and 35th square number coincide, giving 1225 small squares.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned by mathekniticians Pat Ashforth and Steve Plummer.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56737154728314,"sku":"UPID146131","price":5.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/3fae7e3aad3a082e86a87f567b6a7a6afa837caa_UPID146131_172865437715868.jpg?v=1775758080","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-eu\/products\/data-log-knitting-pattern-by-woolly-thoughts","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
