would it be possible to make a spiral?

Oh sure! I mean, sort of! It depends on quite what you mean by "spiral!"

There are no "true" curves when designing for interlocking/double filet crochet — you're always connecting points on a square grid (e.g. graph paper), normally with a very limited palette of additional angles.

A basic "square spiral" or key motif like the above (made with Interlocking Pattern Maker — a web app by two Friends of Patches that anyone interested in designing their own patterns must bookmark!) is no problem, but when you start trying to incorporate curves or achieve specific geometries, things can get kind of loopy:

That said, you might be surprised by much harsh-looking spirals like those soften up once you actually crochet them:

You can also use diagonals in the ground colour (Colour B) to blunt sharp angles in the outline colour (Colour A), which could be useful in a spiral! I've done a bit of that in the very centre of Cinnamon Bun, but you could take that approach further for something like this:

Listen, you're very cute, but if you rearrange the alphabet to put U and I together it will RUIN the spacing!

I'm so happy someone pointed it out

Also if you wanna talk more meta I think it fits their characters as well with the way P2 Alex was stripped of the more complex parts of his personality to fit the role of the evil villain while P1 Alex was more human all things considered

When life butchers your favorite character make him two different people and draw them fucking about it I guess
