FIG 4
FIG 4 is the only way to obtain a ‘real’ symmetric
nested-bights cylindrical knot with 4 BIGHTS-
NESTS , 2 BIGHTS per NEST, x=10.
Unfortunately for our purpose it is TWO-STRAND so
we will need a trick to make it 1-STRAND.
FIG 5
shows the
trick used to
make one
strand route
flow into the
other strand
route.
FIG 5 BIS
FIG 5
The
orientation of winding in the cylindrical diagram is
aberrant so we would need some geometrical
manipulation to make it
“normal” as in FIG 5 BIS
in which ODD numbered HALF-PERIODS go from
BOTTOM-RIGHT to TOP-LEFT
Hopefully every reader will have noted that to get the
correct orientation the INNER KNOT EDGE is put at
the TOP and the OUTER KNOT EDGE at the
BOTTOM.
Plus the colours that read clockwise on FIG 7 are (in
circular order)
Yellow – Dark beige – Orange – Yellow and Dark violet – Mauve rose – Dark red – Blue
are to be put IN THAT ORDER BUT WRITING RIGHT to LEFT. Or write them LEFT to RIGHT but
READ THEM ANTI-CLOCKWISE (this must reminds you of Schaake’s Bights Algorithm. NO?)
