New work: Pleat-curved origami/knit vase

I’ve folded a few models recently that combine origami with knitting, and this piece is the latest in that series. The vertical curve of the origami piece is constructed using the pleats I explored several months ago. The curved sides of the knit piece are created using short rows, which mimic the pleats in the origami piece. Both pieces are based on triangular tubes, so the sides that face each other are both flat planes.
