I think that's my bottom line reason why I didn't include it. This is all about factorization. 1 is the background color, because anything times 1 is itself. But I don't think 0 would quite fit with the pattern. What do you think of my p

Okay, you passed me. I knew I should have pulled out my very old Modern Algebra book. I was thinking in terms of modulo groups. You can show lots of number theory with the sweater, granted that the number on the end is the equivalent of z

The idea of making a chart from prime numbers is definitely not copywrite-able. So go for it! I got the idea from a knitting magazine where someone described a blanket with a chart of prime numbers that fascinated a student who walked by

I thought about putting in zero, but I'm thinking of this in the mathematical group Z sub n, the natural numbers. That ring does not include zero, and it's as if it doesn't exist. One, on the other hand, is the multiplicative identity, so
