Lace tessellations: a mathematical model for bobbin lace and an exhaustive combinatorial search for patterns

Bobbin lace is a 500-year-old art form in which threads are braided together in an alternating manner to produce a lace fabric. A key component in its construction is a small pattern, called a bobbin lace ground, that can be repeated periodically to fill a region of any size. In this thesis we pre...
