crocheting the hyperbolic plane

As I said a few days ago, I’m learning to crochet so I can crochet the hyperbolic plane. I don’t remember much about what I learned about hyperbolic geometry several years ago in the physical science core class at Oglethorpe, but I remember I liked it. Here’s my first try, I actually made it yesterday. I don’t think it’s exactly hyperbolic, as sometimes I lost my place. But I’m happy with it as a first go.

  • Cool! I went to a presentation a few years ago by the mathematicians who started the hyperbolic crochet craze - it was very entertaining!
