Working on another crocheted squiggle.

#wedgeSquiggles #crochet #threadCrochet #mathart #mathsart

A piece of crochet lace in progress. It consists of a length of gold-colour sequins forced to curve from side by crochet stitches done in gold thread. A line of black stitches are partially complete outside the gold stitches, and a fine crochet hook is also shown. The words “soft touch thread pic” are visible on body of the hook.

My submission to the art exhibit at #BridgesMathArt2023. The second picture shows a brief description of it taken from the supplement to my squiggles paper (https://archive.bridgesmathart.org/2023/bridges2023_Supplement_108.pdf).

Yes…I have indeed finally written a paper about squiggles, it can be found at https://archive.bridgesmathart.org/2023/bridges2023-469.pdf.

An 8-fold geometric pattern made of white cord and silver-coloured metal pieces on a black cloth on a white box. It is seen at a downwards angle with a number of people standing around it.

The geometric pattern in the previous picture with a representative squiggly unit drawn as triangles in light blue with black outlines off to the right to show the structure.

There is text underneath which says “Knot Again! A tatted piece in the Art Exhibit at Bridges 2023 made of 16 wedge squiggles with a 22.5° angle using the sequence 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 (https://gallery.bridgesmatharrt.org/exhibitions/2023-bridges-conference/rashmi-sunder-raj).”

It would look somewhat like this if I did.

#mathart #mathsart #crochet #wedgeSquiggles

A digitally edited copy of the previous picture of a red and black squiggly piece of crochet to show how 24 copies would fit together to form a somewhat pointy ring.

This aligned pretty well with the pattern that I made…I wonder if I will have the patience to crochet 23 more copies and make a full ring of them.

#crochet #wedgeSquiggles #mathart #mathsart

A squiggly pattern crocheted in black and red around a length of pre-attached red sequins. It is shown pinned to the printed pattern of narrow triangles that it was based on.

Mirrored pair of physical #wedgeSquiggles.

I may have to be a bit careful if I want to avoid the directional tilt of the stitches.

#crochet #threadCrochet #mathart #mathsart

Two crocheted squiggly things placed so that they approximately mirror each other from left to right.

They are each made from a length of red sequins which is forced sideways into circular arcs by first black, then red metallic crochet stitches.

This one was made out of beads and sequins with a needle and thread instead of using crochet.

#mathart #mathsart #wedgeSquiggles #beading

A squigglle made of a length of pink holographic sequins with iridescent sequins forming the centers of circular arcs and iridescent bugle beads spacing the pink squiggly part from the center sequins.

Okay, this is done very crudely, but If I were crazy enough to crochet enough squiggles of this type, I could put them together to look something like this.

Edit: Though it may be accomplished easily enough using mirrors instead.

#mathart #mathart #wedgeSquiggles #crochet

A digital modification of the previous picture of a crocheted squiggle showing how it would look after reflecting and making copies to result in a 10-fold rotationally-symmetric pattern.

Yet another crocheted physical squiggle.

#mathart #mathsart #wedgeSquiggles #crochet

A crocheted squiggle around a line of holographic pink sequins. The radial lines are crocheted in an iridescent white thread and the outline is done in pink metallic thread. This one has ten circular arcs put together.

Another crocheted physical squiggle.

#mathart #mathsart #wedgeSquiggles #crochet

A squiggly piece of crochet done around a line of red sequins. There are black lines of crochet coming out from the sequins, and metallic red stitches following the curved line of the sequins on either side of the black.

Small red metal rings are used to hook the piece along two knitting needles to show that the entire piece is bounded by a thin triangle.

It is shown held over a black velvety background.

Mucking about some more with sequins, beads and metallic thread.

#wedgeSquiggles #crochet

A curvy reddish squiggle thing crocheted with metallic thread and beads around a length of attached sequins.

It is shown between two popsicle sticks to show that the shape is approximately bounded by a triangle.

‪Yet another physical squiggle. This one is crocheted around sequins using metallic thread.‬

‪#crochet #threadCrochet #wedgeSquiggles #mathart #mathsart‬

A length of black sequins curved up and down with silver metallic thread crocheted on both sides to force the curves. It is shown on a background that is almost white.

A tatted squiggle. You may be able to see that the centers of alternating circles should lie on straight lines.

#tatting #wedgeSquiggles #mathart #mathsart

A tatted squiggle starting with a circle with 18 metal spokes and 2 stitches between spokes, then the direction is reversed and a partial circle is done with 17 spokes, the direction reversed and followed by 16 spokes. This continues until it reaches one spoke. The tatted part is grey and it is on a blackish velvety background with a slight textured pattern.

A bit strange, but you may be able to see a bit of a link between #rhombusRosettes and a type of the #wedgeSquiggles that I play with.

#mathart #mathsart

Something in white and shades of grey on a white and black background that is partly rhombus rosette-like, but missing about a quarter of it. The missing bit shows portions of circles that were merged together to form rhombi. There are also some extensions on the opposite side. It looks somewhat like a mutant creature from the ocean.

A squiggle-associated pattern with some interesting negative spaces.

#wedgeSquiggles

A white pattern on black. It is basically the silhouette of a rotationally symmetric pattern of squiggles.

Some proof-of-concept stuff.

#tatting #wedgeSquiggles

Sample of squiggly tatting in grey with eye pins and safety pins tatted in to form radii of circular curves. It is shown on a black background.

Silly me! I just realized that if I want to tat something where one piece of yarn/cord/thread has to be significantly longer than the other (and I don’t feel like calculating exactly how long 😊), I can just cut the shorter one and use the fact that I can flip stitches to leave the cord on the roll uncut.

#tatting #wedgeSquiggles

A a squiggly piece of grey tatting still attached to a piece of white cord and a large roll of grey cord. The background is black.

A squiggle tatted with metallic thread.

#tatting #wedgeSquiggles #mathart #mathsart

A squiggly thing tatted in metallic light blue thread around a thicker white thread, shown on a black background. The spool of metallic thread is still attached.

(11/?) I tried making a second squiggle pair, but this one has the end circles left open rather than working them as a loop of stitches.

#wedgeSquiggles #tatting #mathart #mathsart

Two double units in a tatted squiggle pattern in purple and pink pinned together on a dark background.

(10/?) If I manage to finish this tatted squiggle pair and make 6 others to match it, they might actually fit together as shown in the second picture.

#wedgeSquiggles #tatting #mathart #mathsart

An unfinished squiggly piece of tatting in purple and pink that has a vertical axis of symmetry and should fit in a downwards-facing isosceles triangle. It is shown on a black background with a couple of shuttles.

A 7-fold rotationally symmetric squiggly pattern in blue and black on a white background.

29-gon squiggles, also shown with wedges.
