DNA Helix Sweater
by Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei
Posted October 2, 2007 in Geeky DNA T-shirts
The weather’s turning colder here in London so today I present to you a DNA helix cable knit sweater from DNA Stuff, a gift store located at Cold Spring Harbor, New York. All net proceeds from the sales of DNA jewelry, artwork, books, apparel, and other souvenirs go to support Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.

Looks very much like an Aran sweater I had as a child. Of course, it’s just a myth that the cabling they use to pattern these sweaters worn by Scottish trawlermen were unique to each family so that the body could be more easily identified following an incident at sea. Now, if they could knit the actual genome into the garment, that would be a different matter altogether.

Great marketing idea! Start knitting.
Hey, do you know if there’s an RS232 interface that would allow me to hook up a knitting machine to a sequencer…?
