| Publisher Summary 3 |
| Building on the success of the popular collection Making Mathematics with Needlework, mathematicians and crafters sarah-marie belcastro and Carolyn Yackel present this colorful and varied collection of fiber art project instructions and mathematical explorations. There is something in this book for everyone from crafters to mathematicians to educators and students. Each chapter presents an accessible overview of the mathematics related to its craft project(s), as well as detailed instructions for the project. Further detailed discussions of the mathematics are also included, as well as suggestions for how to use the material in educational settings of all levels. This book has a lot to offer for mathematicians and non-mathematicians, presented in a beautifully illustrated and well-organized volume. Praise For Making Mathematics With Needlework "...the first book to combine mathematical ideas with instructions for fabric arts projects that make abstract math problems tangible. The authors are all mathematicians and crafters who provide instructions on how to wear a passion for math on your sleeve, pant leg, head, or feet."---Science News "Yackel and belcastro have created an excellent synthesis, one that offers enough ideas to keep geeks (of both the crafty and mathematical varieties) busy with needles and yarn, pencil and paper, for years to come."---American Scientist "Almost any reader will learn about both art and mathematics in this well-organized and amply-illustrated book."---Mathematical Reviews |
| Publisher Summary 4 |
| Yackel and Belcastro, both mathematicians and crafters, explore mathematical concepts with fiber art projects. Each chapter begins with a mathematical overview, followed by a discussion of ideas in more formal, mathematical language, and a crafting section which contains projects specifically designed to illustrate the mathematics in the chapter. A "teaching ideas" section offers ideas for implementing concepts in teaching situations. Much of the book is appropriate for college level number theory classes, but some concepts can be used in elementary and secondary schools as well. Each project is illustrated with diagrams and full-color photographs. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) |
| Publisher Summary 5 |
| From the editors of the popular Making Mathematics with Needlework, this new collection of crafts projects highlights the relationship between mathematics and different kinds of needlework. Chapters start with an overview written for a broad audience that presents the interplay between a mathematical concept and the craft expression of the concept. This is followed by a section explaining the mathematics in more detail, and a section with suggestions for classroom activities. Each chapter ends with specific crafting instructions. Types of needlework included are knitting, crochet, needlepoint, cross-stitch, quilting, temari balls, beading, tatting, and string art |
