And now we revisit... Mathematical Knitting!


Hello, remember that link I posted way back when about the woman who was crocheting models of hyperbolic space (pretty cool). Well here are a few more links for mathematical knitting and crocheting. They have some really great pics of the models themselves... worth a look in. www.sciencentral.com/articles/view.php3?type=article&article_id=218392811

The 3rd link has some of the coolest pics (you've got to click on her links and look around), and not just for models of hyperbolic space, there's other types of mathematical knitting there too. I particularly liked the link on orientable surfaces. Check it out.

Enjoy!
