A different type of math for knitters
Since I'm still trying to load the pictures of my own stuff, I thought I'd mention someone else's stuff instead today. My mother sent me a link to an article that was just too good not to share.
So geeky, & yet so cool. Crafty Geometry
"Mathematicians are knitting and crocheting to visualize complex surfaces" -- very interesting article, with pictures of some very cool fiber shapes.

I saw that algorythm thingy -- like 17 pages worth of pattern! Cool.

Cool. Now, if only I could remember my math. The shapes are incredible.

I'm also interested in this hyperbolic crochet business. Check out the Institute for Figuring's model galleries here for more examples (some are featured in your linked article).
Fun!
