I hadn't seen it before, it looks pretty cool! As for your first question: the faces are crocheted one after another, every time using the side of a ompleted face as the base for the next. (I'm not sure if that's what you mean by continuous?) I always try to make it so I don't need to sew anything, and in this way (with a little bit of cheating at some point) I made the whole thing from a single thread.

Are they continual, made in one piece, or sewn together? And, Have you seen Miyuki Kawamura's squeletons of platonic solids? Would you know how to make them? I do not have the mathematical knowledge for that, but I'd love to be able to make some of the models in http://www.toroidalsnark.net/mkexh2005/mkexh2005-Pages/Image5.html All the best!
