More knots for instagram challenges:

This is Skip Pennock's Yin Yang symbol with Master Hubo's hemispherical knots added to provide dots

Also a version frankensteined together from Struktor's fractal knots, ABoK 2271-5, and ABoK 2323-modified.

ABoK 2323-expanded

Struktor's fractal 6B5L, 10B7L-process, 10B7L.  These have not been refined because they didn't need to be to serve as parts for my frankensteined yin yang knot.

I actually tried to tighten the fractal into the comma shape without the other frankenstein parts, but there wasn't enough "material" in the middle to support the stretching, although there was certainly enough edging.  I have some nascent thoughts about knot infilling to help with stretching similar to IGKT Chart 22's square mat...?

Thanks for the cool knots, Struktor!  BTW, is there something wrong with narval.republika.pl?

Thank You  KnotMe.

The republika.onet.pl website was closed in 2018.
My website has stopped working.

I have the following programs Rozeta.exe, RozetaMo.exe, RozetaM.exe.
I use the Rozeta.exe program constantly.
If IGKT wants to, I will share it.

Sadness.  (and hubby wonders why I print everything.   ;)

If you saved your files before the site stopped working, I'm sure any number of us (or the guild itself) would be happy to host the pages.

(a) I'm very interested
(b) Hmm,  .exe sounds like Windows programs.  If you're willing to share source code I could try to make something cross-platform..

Google Analytics was showing no traffic on my site.
I decided that it is not worth continuing.
Although there were new topics.

I have files uploaded to an FTP server.

It's risky for me.
You can give an unfair comment.
Then you don't see my answers.
Unfortunately, I had such a case.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I will think about it and let you know.

My sites have very little traffic, and yet I see the effects of people using the contents...

Anytime you put your work into a public space, there is that risk.  Plus the internet attracts people who feel that they can say negative and disparaging things without consequence.

The responses to my blog posts on my own sites are mostly echo-y silence and spam.   ::)

I hope that around here you have mostly experience positive or constructive responses...

So, I tied a 5L6B THK in a strip of NeoPixel LEDs... because I could.  Here's a partial explanation on Instagram for how that came to be.  Here's my Instructables for the project, although it's mostly from the technical perspective, for the knotwork instruction I link out.  Here's a link to a video of the LEDs doing their thing.

This 16 inch diameter wheel needed to have a better grip added.  I used 550 paracord to tie 4 bight x 49 lead turks heads.

With the scrap from the wheel, i tied a little bell rope.  Around the thimble is 4 strand braid, which continued with 2 plies until I ran out of line, and I tied a wall and crown.  The joining below the thimble is covered with a 3 lead x 4 bight turks head, and the  wall and crown is covered with a pear shaped turks head.  The pear shaped turks head started out as a 5 lead x 6 bight turks head, I closed the ends into a globe knot and added a complete turn at one end to add 4 leads to the 3 bights.

A cute sailboat showed up in the yard and needed some work done on the tiller.  I'm sorry I didn't have my IGKT reference card, the tiller is about 5' (1.5m) long.  The knot is a 6 bight x 79 lead turks head tied with white 550 Paracord.  The tiller is tapered, so there is a #14 screw on a lock washer at either end that the knot is anchored to.
