6 Degrees of Separation

By Marilyn Rathbone 2008 - 2009
The braids form a set of six number sequences. It is not only numbers I find fascinating but also the spaces between them (the degrees of separation). The braids show the first sixty numbers of each sequence. Why sixty? … because sixty is a number of many parts … 'the ace of divisibility'. hand woven fine silk braids, hand braided fine silk cords, handmade box
