Acquire Crafting By Concepts: Fiber Arts And Mathematics Formulated By Sarah-Marie Belcastro Contained In Version
This would be a great book for learning nonEuclidean geometry , but not so great if one wants only to learn to knit or crochet the fiber art works used to teach the concepts.
I think I need the first book, From the editors of the popular Making Mathematics with Needlework, this book presents projects that highlight the relationship between types of needlework and mathematics.
Chapters start with accessible overviews presenting the interplay between mathematical concepts and craft expressions, Following sections explain the mathematics in more detail, and provide suggestions for classroom activities, Each chapter ends with specific crafting instructions, Types of needlework included are knitting, crochet, needlepoint, crossstitch, quilting, temari balls, beading, tatting, and string art.
Instructions are written as ordinary patterns, so the formatting and language will be familiar to crafters, .
