18:45, the observatory
Slice the space round a black hole through its equator, at one instant, and draw it as a surface: Ludwig Flamm did, in 1916. It is not a pit that things roll into. It shows that near the horizon there is more distance than the circumference suggests, and at the horizon itself the surface stands vertical.

Flamm Funnel Neck
CHF 320 working price
For dusk under the dome: a collar that stands without folding, and cuffs that turn back clean.
A black funnel neck that is, for once, a funnel. The yoke is knitted in rings and ribs, tone on tone: the space round a black hole, drawn as a surface. You see it when the light comes from the side.
A study: nothing can be ordered yet. The photograph is a generated image, not a picture of a made piece or of a real person.
- Merino with 15% cashmere, 5-gauge; the yoke knitted in the round from the collar down, body and sleeves linked by hand
- Round yoke in relief stitch, tone on tone: welted rings at equal depths round the collar, fine ribs running out from them as meridians
- One row of vermilion inside the collar, at the horizon; the collar stands without folding, the cuffs turn back clean
- Relaxed fit, 66 cm long on an M
- Outside: the horizon tab at the back of the neck, 40 × 5 mm, woven in the colour of the cloth
