Saturday Daydreaming: Fractal

I saw parts of a documentary on fractal twice in a week; I had never heard of it, but it sounds like the kind of things weavers might be interested in, though I was too busy trying to get my head around its relationship with measuring the length of the English coastline. Then this morning, I found this by Joanne Mattera and some of the works appear related to fractals.

Tenuously related, only because I saw this on the beach on Rabbit Island, here's a tree we came across during our walk with Doni.

I am attracted to the swirls and curves.

  1. There's a knitting book that's based on fractals and has some cool ideas. Not sure what it's called, but it's recently released and you might be able to find it with google or by checking amazon if you're interested.

    Fractals are cool!
