The Knotwork Program

A cool application to create a computer generated Celtic Knots

Knots3D is written in Visual Basic 6. It comes with a built-in help file. You'll need a reasonable Pentium to get the best out of Knots3D.

The program is written and maintained by Steve Abbott, but would not exist in its current form without the ideas and suggestions sent in by many visitors to his web site.

More especially, the algorithm for creating the knots was completely updated thanks to the brilliant co-operation of Christian Mercat, a French mathematician. Christian is not only an expert on the maths of knots, but also teaches knot design classes based on his elegant algorithm.

Ganoksin.com would like to thank Mr. Steve Abbott for sharing his program and articles with us. Thank you Steve!
