This is what you see when you look directly at the squares. The circles and hearts do not disappear completely as they do in our more complex illusions. You can always see a faint outline.
It is very difficult to photograph illusion knits.
The squares aim to capture all the elements of the sweets:
Six colours
Heart and lettering always pinkish read
Circular sweets
Hearts almost touch circles
Lettering is positioned for ‘best fit’.
(The real sweets sometimes use smaller lettering but we have not been able to do this.)
Some traditional messages and some of our own.
The pattern includes:
Master heart and circle with complete alphabet and instructions for making your own messages.
Use one square to make a cushion
Looking straight at the cushion you see stripes
