Travelling cable pentagons

The top of the pentagon (represented by purls stitches in the Stitch Map) is done in horizontal chain stitch. This top line is too high to make a regular pentagon, and I also want to experiment with making it thicker.

Shown with a cast-on count of 44 stitches.   Getting chart...
