hii Creaters,
Do-decahedron means which geometry have 12 sides.
This Project is combination of three processes .
1 -- Laser cutting
2 -- Knitting with Cotton Thread
3 -- Electronics
Buy Supplies stated below for make this DIY project.
Let's go For making This Lamp.
Supplies
1>MDF board (400x 400 mm)
2>Cotton Thread
3>Needle for thread
4>5 Meters LED Strip any colors
5>12 v Adapter
Laser Cutting

In First step we cut MDF sheet in Pentagonal shape stated in image .
I am using Fusion360 for design this Pentagon shape for lamp.
I attach short video for how to make this Do-decahedron Lamp in Fusion360 .

How to Assemble Using Thread

While design we make hole at circumference of Pentagon for Knitting with Thread.
1 -- Insert Thread into Needle Hole.
2 -- Start Knitting from any side of both pentagon.
3 -- Take two pentagon and Choose any one side for start Knitting.
4 -- When you Finish one side make Knot at end of the holes.
5 -- Repeat this procedure for all 5 side of 1 pentagon.
6 -- After This step you have 5 pentagon attach with 1 pentagon sides.(1 Middle and 5 at side).
Knitting Work Flow

7 -- After Knitting Two Pentagon from one side , Repeat this procedure for Same pentagon with another 4 pentagon.
8 -- After knitting 6 pentagon you have one pentagon knitting from all side in center and another 5 pentagon connect from all side of center pentagon.
9 -- Repeat this side by side knitting for another 5 pentagon for making Dodecahedron.
10 -- When you have 1 pentagon left you need to knit it from one side for working as lead (close or open Dodecahedron).
Finish Knitting

Use all side of pentagon for joining by Knitting and after joining 11 Pentagon you have 1 Side open in
Do-decahedron.
For making Lamp, We need to open it from one side for inserting LED strip.
Unwind LED Strip and test it with 12v adapter.
I have white LED strip , you will buy any color LED Strip or RGB LED strip for lightning.
Light It Up Using LED Strip

Attach Last Pentagon From One side Through Thread.
Fill Flexible LED Strip inside Do -decahedron.
Attach 12v Power adapter with LED Strip for light it up.
Use thread and Knit any 2 sides of open pentagon .
Now you have Do-decahedron lamp Ready for use in your home.
You will Hang it on wall ,make lamp stand for night lamp.
