Swirls are easy in the round, just decrease; for wind and laciness,
add yarnovers that don't quite make up for the decreases.
If the idea is not to piece things together but knit it all in one
long sweep, then swirls can still be knitted using some of the curving
shapes in lace edgings.

It is lovely that you all Help wth ideas , i am only thinking
theoreticly about Which Kind of knitting could express such Natural
phenomenas ,,, But if it will be in an art object to must be in a
straight object ,,,,,,, i have done swirls in a sweater once , i don`t
think of it as portraying winds ,, i would go for some net but it
would be shorter and longer parts maybe use parts with much thinner
thread [ sewing thread , and than increase again to knitting cotons
and wools Wind is something that has a Pulse , it is stronger and
softer ....
But i am glad you all give it som,e thoughts.. THANK YOU

Love the ideas all of you have mentioned. Due to very little -if any-
creativeness, I can't add to the list. :/ But, I can picture in my
mind what you have suggested.

Aha, Mirjam,
You got me there! Perhaps I should have said that my original
thoughts/ideas are few. Once a suggestion is made, I can build on
it.
