Daina Taimina's wildly variegated projective plane (I love these colors!)
the Lorenz manifold, crocheted by Carolyn Yackel using instructions in
the pictured Intelligencer. The excess wire at bottom left indicates

Carolyn Yackel's crocheted Lorentz manifold, in a position as close as
possible to the proper mounted position
A preprint of the designers' article in the Intelligencer is available
here.
Excellently, Carolyn finished mounting it later!-- see here
and here.
