Abstract

This paper explores the intersection of rhythm, mathematics and crochet, presenting a novel methodology for designing and constructing large-scale 3D netted compositions using chain stitch techniques. This approach to crochet pattern design aims to present a time-efficient, versatile and scalable method of generating large-scale art installations, informed by interdisciplinary considerations of rhythmic structure. Through an iterative, practice-based research process, this work highlights the possibilities for using mathematical logic to render complex, large-scale crochet art installations.
