  • Bead Crochet Bracelets: What Would Escher Do?
    Bridges 2012: Mathematics, Music, Art, Architecture, Culture Bead Crochet Bracelets: What Would Escher Do? Ellie Baker Lexington, MA 02421, USA E-mail: [email protected] Susan Goldstine* Department of Mathematics and Computer Science St. Mary’s College of Maryland 18952 E. Fisher Rd St. Mary’s City, MD 20686, USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The popular handcraft of bead crochet produces elegant toroidal bracelets that are visually appealing and easy to wear. Designing bead crochet patterns is surprisingly challenging because of the arrangement of beads into a continuous spiral around the torus. In this paper, we present bracelets that we have designed in the style of M.C. Escher’s tessellations. Each bracelet pattern consists of interlocking copies of a single shape, and we include patterns designed using a powerful new technique for extracting bracelet patterns from planar tilings, along with strategies for creating more patterns. Our Design Challenge Bead crochet is an increasingly popular craft, and bead crochet rope bracelets (shown below in Figures 2, 3, 7, and 11) are particularly elegant in their seamless construction. However, creating symmetric color patterns on bead crochet bracelets is uniquely challenging among bead crafts because of the particular geometry of the beaded surface, as described in the following section. As a result, many existing patterns are based on a few simple known motifs derived from one or two well‐understood flat pattern layouts. The bracelets presented here stem from a design challenge we set ourselves inspired by the tessellation artwork of M.C. Escher, who adapted his own designs from planes to spheres, polyhedra, and cylinders.
