Additions
The Möbius strip is a one-sided surface with one edge. It can be constructed by glueing the ends of a paper strip together after having rotated one end 180°.
The knitted Möbius strip was made with a round needle after meshing according to the strucure of a Möbius strip. At first the brown stripe was knitted and then it was proceeded by knitting into two directions along the brown stripe.
