You can use a Sweep to loft on multi-curve spline....but you lose the Scale functionality of the normal Loft. Enter this....MCG Sweep Scale.

Installation:

Then can be found in modifier list (naturally, you should add a Sweep first)

In your dreams, I give this to you for free...

Reality check, $5USD...

Here you can see I've gone in and deliberately deleted some segments so there's a mix of closed and opened curves in a spline....it will still work...

A set of simple MCG modifiers which do very powerful things when used in a procedural workflow. You can make adjustments to a mesh's pivot inversely by using these modifiers. You can animate at a sub-object level.

Apologies: because I create the spokes all pointing straight down as Angle = 0, so it makes more sense to open up the Umbrella as you increase the Angle....it means 99% of the time the Bend Axis would be Z, this has been set as default in ver 1.02

Visualise an OpenVDB file with boxes.This is in Create Panel>Vu

Use LoD to speed up your display, 1 = Max details..ie. slowest, higher to speed up. The Dragon has 23Million verts so don't expect lightning responsiveness.

Ver 1.01: option to display Tetra or Box

This MCG takes one vane, clone them evenly up to your window height. As you pullup the blind, the vanes move accordingly and naturally you can rotate the vanes to Open/Close positions. Too lazy to get around to doing a video...I think you get the idea.
