I finished my spiral. This is the project I started after visiting the yarn store in my home town last month. This was a very fun thing to knit. The pattern is here. After the first 20 or so rounds, this is very intuitive. Once you knit the body, the border is knitted on perpendicular to the body. Every other row incorporates a stitch from the body. So you are basically binding off at the same time. I liked that.
Don't like to purl? There are no purl stitches here.
My spiral ended up about 32" in diameter. It's going to go on the back of a chair. Or couch. It could be made smaller or finer and be used on top of a table. I've seen similar patterns used as baby blankets.
Here are the posed photos.

I love symmetry!
I think it might inspire me to knit a baby blanket... right after I finish one of the ones on the needles.
